Lab Access Policy

The following is the procedure to gain access to the AguaClara lab.

Safety Training Requirements

• Laboratory Safety (EHS-LaboratorySafety - Number 2555) - required for all users of Engineering laboratories and shops
• ChemWaste (EHS-ChemWaste - Number: 2716) - required for all users of Engineering laboratories and shops
• Additional safety training may be required before using specific equipment.

We understand that some laboratory users may only use office space or computer facilities in laboratories and may not intend to use chemicals. However, these students are in the laboratory space and are potentially exposed to chemicals and thus must receive the training.
All users of the Engineering laboratories and shops must receive the Chemical Safety for Laboratory Workers training.
