The University has renewed the existing Policy on Environmental Health and Safety, effective Aug. 15. The policy can be found on the University’s Administrative Policies webpage.
 
Policy on Environmental Health and Safety
The intent of this policy is to prevent accidents, injuries, and property damage and to help each member of the University community maintain a high standard of safety and health; and to meet continuous compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and standards related to Environmental Health and Safety at the federal, state, and local levels. Review of the existing policy was initiated as a regularly scheduled review. No substantial revisions were deemed necessary, and all edits were non-material.
