24. Chemistry Department Teaching Laboratory Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)

25. The chemistry department SOPs are in place to minimize health and safety risks. Any person in violation of these protocols shall face administrative action.

26. Letter from the Dean of CAS

27. General Procedures Anybody who wishes to perform any course work in a chemistry lab shall first receive the proper safety training (CHP and SOPs overviewed). Pets are not allowed in the CPSB. Chemicals, equipment, cultures, specimens and other university property may not be removed from the premises without the expressed written consent of the laboratory manager.

28. Laboratory Safety The number of students permitted to each lab shall never exceed the number of stations available in the laboratory. Children, friends, and visitors are not allowed in laboratories without the expressed written permission of the laboratory coordinator and notification of the laboratory manager and Department Chair. Horseplay and unauthorized experiments are strictly forbidden.

29. Laboratory Safety Wipe spills immediately. If the spill involves hazardous materials notify your instructor immediately. Inform classmates of the spill and make sure that they avoid the area.

30. Laboratory Safety Deposit waste in the appropriate receptacles. Glass should be disposed of in glass disposal boxes only. Hazardous chemicals should be disposed of in special, labeled waste containers in the fume hood(s). Non-toxic, non-hazardous aqueous solutions should be disposed of down the drain only if permitted under all current applicable EPA, CDC, NIH, DEC, and MOA regulations and policies. (Discuss pH of solutions.) Regular paper waste should be disposed of in a regular garbage bin only. Where available, recyclable paper only should be discarded in recycling bins.

31. Laboratory Safety Injuries or incidents should be reported to the lab instructor immediately. Incident report forms shall be filled out by the injured party and lab instructor and filed with the chemical hygiene officer for any and all incidents and injuries.

32. Student Health Center Health care is free for students taking 6 or more credits. If you are involved in an incident in lab, your instructor may suggest that you visit the student health center before continuing with lab.

33. Laboratory Safety Know where all safety equipment is located and how they function. These are to remain clear of obstructions at all times. Your instructor will point each of these out to you. Safety shower Eyewash basin Fire extinguisher Fire blanket Fume hoods First aid kit Glass disposal boxes MSDS binder Phone

34. Laboratory Safety All exits are clearly marked and should be unobstructed at all times. Your instructor will go over the emergency escape route for this lab. In the advent of a visible fire or the sound of a building fire alarm, everybody should remain calm. Follow your instructor�s directions for evacuating the building.

35. Laboratory Safety In the event of an earthquake, everybody should remain calm, get under a bench or stand against an inside wall. Do not stand in a doorway or against windows. Follow the instructor�s verbal orders regarding any building evacuation once the shaking stops.

36. Laboratory Safety During a building evacuation if time and safety permits: Shut off all electrical devices Stop any chemical procedures Gather personal belongings Calmly proceed to exit the building via the nearest and safest exit Do not use the elevators Once outside, stay at least 50 to 100 feet from any buildings Do not leave your class evacuation assembly point until your instructor has personally accounted for every one in your class.

37. Personal Safety Never enter any teaching laboratory without the presence and / or permission of your lab instructor. Consult with your healthcare provider if you have any special medical conditions or any other medical concerns while participating in lab exercises. Voluntarily inform your instructor of any relevant medical conditions that could pose a safety hazard to yourself or others.

38. Personal Safety Smoking, eating and drinking are strictly forbidden in laboratories. Any visible food / drink container shall be discarded in a garbage bin. Gum and mints are considered food items. Food and beverage containers may not be left outside laboratory doors as they pose a trip and slip hazard.

39. Personal Safety Appropriate attire is required in all laboratories at all times. Your instructor will elaborate. Long hair must be tied back. Keep it out of your eyes and out of your chemicals! OSHA recommends strongly against wearing contact lenses in lab. Notify your instructor at the beginning of each lab if you are wearing contact lenses. Research chemical incompatibility! Remove dangling jewelry from your person before entering the lab. The application of any and all make-up, including lip balm and ChapStick�, is strictly prohibited in laboratories.

40. Personal Safety Specific procedures must be fully read and understood prior to coming to lab. Know the properties of your chemicals. All hazardous characteristics of chemicals should be known prior to lab. These may be found in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each chemical and / or the lab manual.

41. Personal Safety Persons should wash their hands with soap and water upon entering and before leaving the laboratory. Never start an experiment before your instructor gives you permission to do so.

42. Personal Safety The appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) shall be worn by all persons in the laboratory. This includes OSHA approved splash proof goggles, lab coats / aprons and non-permeable gloves. The fume hood should be used anytime hazardous chemicals are present.

43. Personal Safety Plan the use of appropriate glassware. Always use the smallest container feasible. Always use the smallest amount of a given chemical. Never pour directly from a very large container into a very small container.

44. Personal Safety Never intentionally inhale or ingest any chemicals If you get any chemicals on your skin, rinse the exposed areas with copious amounts of water unless otherwise indicated by your instructor / MSDS. A major spill on your person will require use of a safety shower. You should get into the shower as soon as possible, and as soon as possible begin to remove all clothing. Do not let modesty prevent you from taking the appropriate safety measures. If you get a chemical in your eye, you should flush it out for a minimum of 15 minutes at the eyewash basin. If you are wearing contacts, you should remove them as soon as possible after an initial rinsing. Follow your instructor�s directions.

45. Personal Safety All powered equipment in the chemistry laboratory pose a risk of electrical shock. Hotplates pose a burn hazard.

46. Personal Safety The use of cell phones, i-pods, blue tooth devices etc. while in attendance of any laboratory class is prohibited, except when calling in an emergency. When making an emergency call the call takers will need to know: a. Your name and location (building, room number, building address) b. The nature of your emergency (type and severity of injuries) c. The suspect description and direction of travel (if applicable) All cell phones should be placed in the silent or vibration mode and be kept in a pocket, purse or backpack. If you receive a call notifying you of a family or medical emergency, calmly tell your instructor and leave the room to continue the call.

47. Laboratory Etiquette Sign the attendance sheet as soon as possible after entering the lab. Bench tops and isles should be kept free of clutter. Place personal items, coats, and non-relevant books in a cubby. Work areas / lab benches should be cleaned before and after bench work.

48. Laboratory Etiquette Faulty or inoperative equipment should be reported to your instructor immediately. Never contaminate equipment or solutions unnecessarily. Keep all cabinets and drawers closed when not in use to avoid catching and bumping hazards.

49. Laboratory Etiquette Care should be used in the handling of all glassware. If something is broken, notify the instructor immediately and prevent students from accessing the area containing the broken glass. The instructor will clean up the broken glass using a brush and dustpan and discard the materials in the broken glass box.

50. Laboratory Etiquette All glassware should be cleaned properly before being returned to your lockers. Always clean used glassware at the lab sink using soap, tap water and a brush. Rinse with distilled water before drying each piece carefully and replacing in the appropriate locker.
