4.19.2 Inspections by Regulatory Agencies

Inspections by state and federal regulatory agencies can occur at any time and can result in citations and significant fires for the university.  The best way to be prepared for these inspections is to understand what regulations apply to your area and what you need to do to comply with those regulations.  You can obtain this information from resources such as this Laboratory Safety Manual, by conducting your own self inspections, and by calling EHS at 607-255-8200.  You can find additional information on the EHS web page on what to do during an OSHA inspection and what to do during an EPA inspection.

If a state or federal inspector shows up in your work area unescorted, ask them to please wait and contact EHS immediately at 607-255-8200.
