It is extremely important for all individuals that generate chemical waste to not only contact the departmentto be trained in the proper handling of materials  but  to be trained in how to properly identify and package the material. The University follows the guidelines and regulations as set up by the EPA for all areas and campuses. To not follow the established guidelines and procedures could lead to a severe fine for the University.   Please contact one of the individuals in the Hazardous Materials and  Chemical Waste section to have an individual session on the proper methods to safely and legally handle what you are working with on behalf of the University.
