Hey DCHAS,
Two questions for you:
1)
Have I been removed from the mailing list? It seems I haven't gotten an email from this listserve in a while and I would
like to continue to receive the emails.
2)
I would like to ask the community the following question about chemical store rooms:
a.
Our property management group asked me recently if there is a minimum temperature that a chemical stores room must be to
ensure safe storage. (Canadian winters are really cold and heating an old building can be hard) While I can look at the SDS for each individual chemical, is anyone aware of a standard or a rule of thumb for the temperature at which chemical storage is recommended?
Thanks

Do any of you have a process on your campus for the ordering of hazardous chemicals which is managed by the EHS department.
I would like to learn more about your process. Please contact me directly. I will produce a summary for the listservs.
Thanks ... Jim
