</b>For several years, the campus Lab Audit Program has been in a state
of limbo due to various reasons however, EH&S is preparing to
resurrect the program and initiate lab safety inspections in the near
future, possibly within a few weeks.<br><br>
In an effort to assist labs in preparing for these audits, EH&S has
developed a Laboratory Self-Audit Guide which is Appendix E to the Campus
Chemical Hygiene Plan and can be viewed at the following links:
<br><br>
</font><font face="arial" size=3>Appendix E is available in either a PDF

or Word format<br>

</a></font>Please use this document as a tool to prepare and organize
your lab in advance of the impending examinations. As I recall, the
majority of violations noted during previous inspections of research labs
were associated with waste management and labeling of secondary
containers.<br><br>
Should you have questions or concerns regarding the guide or lab safety
inspections, please contact me at your earliest convenience.<br><br>
Thank you, Dan<br><br>
