1. CM4120 Chemical Plant Operations Lab Safety Program PAWS program will provide structure for safety program  entire class is responsible for safe environment  everyone will have a turn with a specific safety responsibility  will have 2 safety meetings with entire class  2/24/06  4/21/06

2. CM4120 Chemical Plant Operations Lab Safety Program What is the same: 1 (or 2) from each team will coordinate safety for the assigned project Safety meetings will cover: New PAWS reports Follow-up on open PAWS Review of SIC Possible report on special safety topic Safety meetings will be on Friday

3. CM4120 Chemical Plant Operations Lab Safety Program What is different from CM4110: No lab groups, project teams will change mid- semester Team size may vary from 3 to about 8 Lab will be inspected by 9:00 AM every week, not just lab weeks, starting 1/24/06 Lab activities in UO Lab area, including B003 and B003A
