The Mercer University community is composed of various "mini-industries", such as:
Physical Plant (industrial), Food Service & Residence Halls
(commercial), and scientific research & academic laboratories (R&D and
education). Therefore, the Mercer University community is subject
to a wide
range of government regulatory standards and laws concerning the
storage, use,
and disposal of hazardous chemical substances.
The Hazardous Chemicals page of the Environmental, Health & Safety Office website will
provide
information and assistance
concerning proper methods and procedures for the storage, use, disposal,
and recycling opportunities for hazardous chemical substances.
Contact the
Environmental, Health & Safety Office
for additional information
concerning hazardous chemicals.
