Upvote:2

A consecrated host that cannot be consumed will be disposed of by placing it in water. This water, in turn, is to be poured through the sanctuarium (within the sacristy) into the ground.

I am suprised that it is not stated in the GIRM, but maybe it was obvious for the authors of this document.
