Kim,
I'd like to see the form. I've trained in
England and have used their risk assessment matrix and wish we used it
over here. And the nicest thing about their form is that you sign
the bottom. So if a project goes forward, you are the person that
is atesting that in your opinion the risk, with the precautions you have
suggested is minimal.

While
some of us are in process of lecturing to other people I would like to
jump in and point out that what they say may also be incorrect.
Here is an example: Is water hazardous? No? Well, try
putting it on a water reactive material.
I would
like my comment also to be considered when hazard assessment for a
chemical is made 1 trough 5. Since we don't purchase the chemicals
to accessorize our labs, their hazard should be assessed depending on
where they are used and where (next to which chemical) they are
stored.

You might
want to include PPG and waste disposal recommendations
too.
