LORRE lab updates
by Crawley, Lindsey R 30 Oct '19

30 Oct '19

LORRE Lab Users- Once again, I've made a few changes for clarification of the Laboratory Worker Safety Training Checklist. I've indicated that Sharps and Haz Waste training are now required and not listed as optional. Training in Autoclave Operation and a separate signature line authorizing publication of your identify on LORRE's public website has been added. Location of training exercises have been listed. Thank you for your patience for this work in progress. Self-audits have been submitted to REM. I do not have an expected date for REM's on-site POTR audit. They reserve the right to inspect without notice. I'm currently disposing 90% of the chemicals in 254 after Mosier's approval. Please look through 3 upper cabinets and the two carts and find me if you wish to keep any chemical. Please do not move anything without consulting me first. I anticipate that REM will pick up Tuesday or later. Chemical inventory is in the process of being extensively updated. The hopeful deadline for completion is next Friday, prior to inspection. If you have any chemicals improperly stored (read: hidden) in a drawer or elsewhere, please let me know so I can correct this and write it into the inventory. Refrigerators and freezers as well as under-the-sink household chemicals must be included in our comprehensive inventory. Having a completed inventory will allow me the efficient resources to create a current SDS log. I am in the process of accessing and creating such on a shared network space. I will update when ready. This means that anyone ordering fresh chemicals will be responsible for locating an electronic SDS and moving it to the shared folder. CHP/BEP binders are being returned to the lab space today. Next Seminar is June 27, 930am POTR234. Brent will be presenting. If no one else volunteers for Jul 11, I will present topics on Hazardous Waste Management and Disposal. Jul 25 is still available. Gas cylinder safety straps are on backorder from Cole Parmer and expected mid-July. The Lab Checkout process seems to be going well. Lab users are surprised at unknown samples and other chemicals and supplies being stored. Checkout can take a few hours to two days, accounting for inventory, cleanout, dishwashing, notebook witnessing, data storage, etc. Please keep this in mind as you continue to generate such items and as your LORRE departure nears. Lastly, Eyewash Stations should be FLUSHED WEEKLY! Thank you for your attention. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Lindsey Crawley Lab Manager Laboratory of Renewable Resources Engineering http://www.purdue.edu/lorre Department of Ag. and Bio.

I am relocating sulfuric acid found underneath the cabinet (near filtration system) in 359 to under the hood in 231. It was received in Jan 2017. I can update with project or PI name, if applicable. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Lindsey Crawley Lab Manager Laboratory of Renewable Resources Engineering http://www.purdue.edu/lorre Department of Ag. and Bio.

LORRE- I will use Thurs timeslot for a meeting of ONLY the Safety Committee with the invitation for any PI to attend. Brent will present on Jul 11. THANK YOU ALL for your efforts during last-minute inspection prep amongst POTR and for your continued efforts in all the safety improvements we've made since I joined LORRE back in September. To the LORRE Safety Committee -REM's findings of our self-audits -the discussion amongst REM before their walk-through - what was remedied on-the-spot- during their inspection -and if available, present their inspection report. To remain in compliance and indemnified under REM, all abatements must be completed by Sunday, June 30, 2018. This tight timeline will not be a problem, as I'll discuss during the meeting. Thank you for thinking and working safely.

Re: [LORRE-list] Help Needed Chem Inventory, SDS & LorreDoc shared space
by Crawley, Lindsey R 24 Jun '19

24 Jun '19

I will be working on SDS for 235 today. Jenny is updating inventory for 237/254/256. Clark is updating inventory for 336. Awaiting to hear status of 359. Jorge is working on inventory of B38. Inventory complete for 231, 233/252, 235, 333 & 335. Thank you all for the hard work.

If anyone has spare time, please assist. Chemical Inventory (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1thXcsqAsDpPie0_jBz6B7s_H9GxhtGAjrlz…) still needs updated for B38 & 359 as well as 254 & 256 (few remaining in those two rooms). This includes flammable cabinets, acid/base storage under fume hoods, under sinks and fridge/freezers. Please document any primary container provided by the manufacturer. Do not include secondary solutions at this time (70% ethanol). Please remove any chemicals no longer present. All electronic SDSs in pdf format should now be added to our new shared drive. Connecting instructions below. All labs need SDSs once each room inventory is complete. I'll begin right now with 231 (I don't have a laptop to begin where inventory needs completed). Replicate chemicals from separate manufacturers do not need to have separate PDFs at this time. All SDSs will be contained in the same folder. I suggest Ctrl+F in the folder to see if one has been added based on another room's inventory before searching for an SDS. Rooms needed: B38, 233/252, 235, 237/254/256, 333, 335, 336 & 359.

Safety Mtg Cancelled
by Crawley, Lindsey R 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

For today. Will try to reschedule for tomorrow, if needed? I was going to discuss this doc, explain how I used it to begin going thru 333 and finally be available for questions. Please attempt to read the doc (table) and go thru all chemicals in each of your spaces, observing the GHS symbol or blue-red-yellow diamond. There are many plastic secondary containers available on the upper shelves near my desk (for example, acid segregation). If you must move something, please document it on the pre-printed sheet for Jorge or myself to update the chemical inventory. Please do not update the inventory at this time. I believe I left two printouts, one for each room, near the 333 entrance closest to my desk. I'm available via text 2173046134. Thank you. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36>
