Chemical Cleanup
Recommended Motion(s):
Board Member #1 moved to approve contract with PegEx to dispose of excess chemicals at a cost of $5254.50. Board Member #2 seconded the motion. Motion Passed
Action(s):
No Action(s) have been added to this Agenda Item.
Rationale:
We have a number of old chemicals in our science lab that are not needed and will never be used. Over the years, grant funded collections have occurred. The ones that are left are ones that those programs would not take.
I sent an inventory of these chemicals to a disposal site. The cost to remove these chemicals is $5254.50. It is not an urgent threat since some have been sitting there for over 25 years. However, it is something we should deal with eventually. They serve no educational purpose. It is a safety hazard waiting to be exposed.
Comments:
ADM REC: To contact with PegEx to dispose of excess chemicals at a cost of $5254.50.
