Hazardous Materials

Hazardous materials have one or more of the following characteristics:

  • Listed
  • Flammable
  • Corrosive
  • Reactive
  • Toxic

If you have any questions about storage or disposal of potentially hazardous materials (rags, batteries, etc.) contact Rand Webb, Environmental Health & Safety Manager, 957-4902 or rand.webb@slcc.edu

The College has a "HAZMAT Team" assigned to handle minor chemical spills.  It is important to contact us to determine if the spill is "minor."  See Emergency Procedures for SLCC Personnel � Chemical Spills for the proper procedures.   

Ergonomic Evaluations

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are caused by repetitive motion of any part of the body.  "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome" is a common manifestation of an "MSD."  The College has the responsibility to evaluate and control the causes of MSD's.  If you have been diagnosed with one of these disorders or you feel that you may be in danger of having one of these disorders, please contact the Risk Management Office for and ergonomic evaluation of your work station. 

Paper Recycling Program

The College currently has a paper only (catalogs, newsprint, magazines) recycling program that currently recycles 8-10 tons per month.   There is one pickup point per floor per building (we all must do our part).  Please take your recycle paper to these pick up points for weekly pick up.  Click here to read more about the guidelines.
