regulatory compliance for Southern Illinois University Carbondale.
The Center is comprised of four sections:

Together,
these sections work on monitoring Federal and State laws,
determining their effects on the University, and advising

All faculty, staff and student employees who work in laboratories with chemicals must attend annual chemical safety and hazardous waste disposal training. Workshops last an hour and a half. Please call 453-7180 to reserve a place.
CEHS has implemented a Battery Recycling Program in

CEHS is currently working on updating our website
and should be completed by May, 2009.
