Chemical Safety Plan (Transition)

“The requirement to submit a Science Plan for URC2023 has been replaced. Teams will instead submit for approval a detailed Chemical Safety Plan. Approval is required for any chemicals/reagents other than water intended for use in the Science Mission. All teams are required to submit a plan - if your team does not plan to use any chemicals, then your response may simply state as such.”

Required Information for the Plan:

  • Team Chemical Safety Officer

  • List of Chemical Names

  • Concentration/Molarity - transport ninhydrin in (marked) solution!

  • Amount Needed - can only have the amount necessary for on-board application

  • Storage Details - type and size of containers for chemicals

  • Use for each Chemical

  • Disposal Plan - can only be home University or commercial disposal facility

Due date, hypothetically, May 19th 2023. Check-in once at URC on May 31st to ensure consistency with the plan.
