Chemical Safety
The worker's-right-to-know standard requires 黑料网 to make accessible to all employees information regarding chemicals used in the workplace. Plant Services provides this used. All departments are required to maintain paper copies of SDS sheets in order to ensure continuous compliance.
Waste Removal
黑料网 strives to be conscientious of our contribution to waste production. The constant production of waste can be a complex topic. The university generates waste as part of normal daily operations, both academically and as a facility. Not all waste can be disposed of through trash or sanitary sewage systems.
A determination is conducted to identify the proper disposal routes required for the protection of the 黑料网 community, facilities, and the environment. We are currently operating as a very Small Quality Generator (VSQG) of hazardous waste. Please contact EHS at 503-554-2011 for more information on waste disposal.
