Environmental Protection

The Environmental section is responsible for:

  • Hazardous waste management.
  • The University air permit.
  • Spill response.
  • EPA Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure Plans.
  • Underground and above ground storage tanks, and more.

While the Environmental Management section keeps track of these regulations to ensure the University's compliance, Supervisors and Principal Investigators are responsible for being aware of these regulations and ensuring they, their employees and students comply with the regulations.
