During the grant process, some funding agencies (especially USDOD and USEPA)
require an Environmental Compliance review. This review requires the
Responsible Facility Official (RFO) to sign a Certificate of Environmental
Compliance. The UW RFO for environmental compliance issues is the Department
of Environmental Health and Safety Director.
-
Complete an EH&S Lab Safety Checklist (Word).
-
For a proposed project when an EH&S review has not been completed,
submit a completed Research Project Hazard
Assessment form with an abstract, your completed Lab Safety Checklist, and
the Certificate of Environmental Compliance form provided by the granting agency
to the Institutional Biosafety Officer.
For an existing project, assure that an EH&S review
has been completed. The EH&S review should have a reference
number assigned to the project. Submit a signed letter with the
EH&S reference number, your completed Lab Safety Checklist, and
the Certificate of Environmental Compliance form provided by the
granting agency to the
Institutional Biosafety Officer.
-
Submit a signed copy of the Principal Investigator Safety Program Assurance form
(this form should be in your DOD packet).
Please allow several weeks for review as this may require EHS staff to survey
facilities and conduct records reviews. For additional information contact the
Institutional Biosafety Officer.
