The Ohio Administrative Code 4167-3-01 has adopted the Occupational Safety and Health Administration standard 29 CFR 1910.1450 which sets forth the requirement to develop a Lab Specific Chemical Hygiene Plan. This requires CSU and all other State Institutions to comply with all applicable OSHA standards.
For CSU laboratories, the Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) is created by combining laboratory specific information and safety requirements which are outlined in the CSU Laboratory Safety Manual. The CHP can be in electronic or paper format but must be accessible for all personnel who work in areas containing hazardous materials.
If any personnel want to keep any portion of the CHP separate from the master copy, the location of other pertinent information must be recorded in the lab specific information section.
