Welcome from the Committee on Chemical Safety Chair










 

 

Welcome to the Committee on Chemical Safety web site. While you are here, please check our "what's new" section and the publications section for updates. Our newest online publication is Security Vulnerability Checklist for Academic and Small Chemical Laboratory Facilities. This is designed to help laboratories identify security weaknesses they may have in order to protect facilities from terrorism and vandalism.

Our pre-eminent publication is the 7th Edition of "Safety in Academic Chemistry Laboratories" (SACL) edited by Jay Young of CCS. The 7th Edition comes in two volumes: Volume 1 is for college and university undergraduate students; and Volume 2 is for faculty and administrators. Both the brochure and SACL can be downloaded from the publications section of this site. We are constantly updating and adding more information and free publication downloads to the site, so visit us again and check our progress. Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. Thank you for your interest in chemical safety!

 

Sincerely,

Russ Phifer
