Alterations
of physical facilities may not be made without consulting University
Facilities. Express written permission from University Facilities (in
the form of a building permit) is required. All potentially hazardous
materials and chemicals must be properly relocated or removed for disposal
prior to workers being admitted to the premises.
The relocation
and disposal of chemicals, major safety equipment, and/or the change
in occupancy of an area must be reported to University Facilities and
EHS. If radioactive materials were used in that area, a survey for removable
and non-removable contamination must be performed before workers are
allowed in the area.
If an
area is to remain occupied during alterations or renovations, University
Facilities, or their contractors and sub-contractors, will prominently
post MSDSs for all substances being used during the project.
