HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS

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.
