NOTE: Scientific and field researchers doing research with chemical safety concerns are required to take a short online questionnaire that will provide valuable feedback for any risks that may arise in their research. The director of the Risk Management Support Program, Trig Trigiano, will follow up with any suggestions or assistance that may be advisable. The UA site for the questionnaire is here.
UAA Chemical Hygiene Plan here.
Before purchasing chemicals: If a principal investigator (PI) or their designee need chemicals for their research or class, contact Maurice Riner (see contact information above). He manages the server with the current chemical inventory.
