Environmental Policies
Protecting Our
Environment
One policy at a time.
Every policy is designed with two goals in mind: keeping people safe and minimizing our environmental footprint. Whether it's ensuring chemical waste never reaches our groundwater or having clear action plans for environmental emergencies, these guidelines help every member of our campus community make decisions that benefit both immediate safety and long-term sustainability.
Hazardous Waste
If not handled correctly, hazardous wastes pose a significant threat to health.
Disposal of Other Wastes
Though these are not hazardous wastes, there are still environmental considerations for certain materials.
Chemical Spills
There are two types of spills: nonemergency and emergency. Know what to do when either happens.
