1. Overview

   本政策的目的是:

   1. To protect people and the environment from the negative impacts of hazardous materials by identifying appropriate procedures for handling, storing, 危险物品的处置;

   2. 确保newbb电子平台遵守所有联邦, state, 以及当地关于有害物质的法规, hazardous waste, biohazards materials, and spill response;

   3. 划分责任范围.

   Ohio university will obtain, handle, store, and dispose of hazardous materials in a manner that protects people and the environment and complies with applicable regulations. Owners and users of hazardous materials will handle those materials in a manner consistent with this requirement and following all procedures referenced in this document.

2. Definitions

   Hazardous waste is generally a non-radioactive chemical substance that is no longer wanted. 参见下面的讨论和, 查看详细的监管定义, 《newbb电子》."

   1. Hazardous materials

      Hazardous materials are any chemical or material that poses a significant risk to the health and safety of people, the environment, or facilities. 这包括获得许可的放射性物质, biohazard agents, hazardous chemicals and any material regulated as hazardous under CERCLA 42 USC 9601 (14) or USDOT 49 CFR 172.101.

      危害可能来自于一种或多种接触途径, including skin contact, inhalation, or ingestion, 或者在放射性物质的情况下，甚至是在接近的时间, 没有直接的身体接触. 除了飞溅和流动, 液体也可能以蒸气或气溶胶的形式在空气中分散, 灰尘或粉末也可能通过空气扩散.

   2. Hazardous chemicals

      Hazardous chemicals are chemicals for which there is statistically significant evidence based on at least one study conducted in accordance with established scientific principles that acute or chronic health effects may occur in exposed people.

   3. Hazardous materials waste

      Hazardous materials waste meets any one or more of the following criteria:

      1. 美国联邦法规40 CFR 261中定义的废物或废物组合.3;

      2. 这些物质在49 CFR 171中被定义为危险废物.8; or

      3. 第3734章或第3745章界定为危险废物的物质. 《newbb电子平台》，或第3745章. of the Administrative Code.

   4. Radioactive waste

      Radioactive waste is any substance that is no longer wanted and is known to be radioactive (producing ionizing radiation) greater than background level.

   5. Biohazardous waste

      Biohazardous waste is any substance that is no longer wanted and contains or could potentially contain biohazards agents. 浏览详细的规管定义, see the "Biosafety Manual," and state regulations, or contact EHS.

   6. PCB waste

      PCB waste is any substance that is no longer wanted and includes biphenyl molecules that have been chlorinated to varying degrees. For a detailed regulatory definition, 见《newbb电子》."

   7. Asbestos waste

      Asbestos waste is asbestos material that has been removed or collected and labeled as a waste. For a detailed regulatory definition, see the "Asbestos Management Program."

   8. Other terminology

      Multi-hazardous waste is waste that contains two or more of the following wastes: biological, radioactive, or hazardous waste.

      混合废物是包括放射性物质在内的多重危险废物.

      Specially regulated waste is any waste that becomes a public concern and is regulated specifically. 前面的七个浪费就是这种浪费的例子.

3. 识别有害物质

   There are three primary tools used to determine if a material is hazardous and how it will be handled:

   1. 具体的书面文件, 例如“材料安全数据表”(MSDS), the container label, or shipping papers. (A MSDS is a regulatory document that is required to be provided by the manufacturer to the user; the sheet contains pertinent safety information.)

   2. The specific listings and definitions of materials included in various regulations. 这些列表和定义包含在美国.S. Code of Federal Regulations, the Revised Code, and the Administrative Code, 所有这些都可以在奥尔登图书馆和互联网上找到.

   3. 个人知识(个人可能创造了材料), 或者了解材料属性的具体信息).

   如果无法确定有害物质的状态, call environmental health and safety ("EHS") and request a review by the hazardous materials manager. Unknown materials will be treated as hazardous materials until they are determined to be non-hazardous.

4. Acquiring hazardous materials

   危险材料的获取必须按照政策的规定 55.031.

5. Using hazardous materials

   有害物质使用者被引导到EHS有害物质管理手册以获取具体的政策、程序和实践. The manual includes information and management tools required to use hazardous materials safely and to comply with laws and regulations.

   除《newbb电子》外,"物料处理程序如下:

   1. Referring to the "newbb电子平台生物安全手册";

   2. Referring to the EHS "Radiation Safety Handbook";

   3. Using the 环境健康和安全(EHS)网站; or

   4. 联系EHS办公室，电话:740-593-1666.

6. 有害物质的处置
