General Lab Safety

Safety Resources

There are many resources on the Intranet. Some examples include the latest information on COVID-19, the NOAA Emergency Notification System, and the NOAA Safety Incident/Accident reporting home page. If you are working onsite (La Jolla) you should familiarize yourself with these links along with how to report an incident if one occurs.

Chemical Inventory

• Currently SAEL only possesses commercially available (over the counter) products and these are not required to be a part of the chemical inventory.

  • As such, we do not currently have a chemical inventory (updated Feb 2023).

Organization

• Keep lab tidy and clean. If you start on a project and intend to keep working on it over a few days (i.e. building equipment) please clean up after you have completed work.

• If you notice that something is running low (i.e. electrical tape, crab floats, nuts and bolts) please contact Shannon Rankin or Kourtney Burger so that they may order more supplies.
