If anyone orders an acutely hazardous chemical or carries out a procedure that is expected to produce an acutely hazardous product, prior approval must be obtained from the Dean of the Faculty who will immediately notify the chairman of the College Safety Committee. Guidelines for Collecting Waste Materials Avoid the use of common waste containers. By collecting waste chemical separately, they will be easier to identify, treat and store. Waste chemicals must be stored in appropriately labeled containers. Liquids must be stored in labeled screw-capped bottles or safety cans.
Solid wastes are to be stored in bottles, jars or plastic-lined sealed boxes.
Identify waste chemicals as completely as possible. List all constituents regardless of hazard, and keep a running log of material that is added to containers. Give approximate percentages of each constituent in the final waste. Identify the person responsible for creation of the waste should additional information be needed.
