Can you please make sure that these safety items are all addressed when you perform the lab clean up? Please have one person email me to tell me when they are all completed.

Below, you'll find a list of open items that require attention. Any issues applicable to all surveyed rooms will be marked as “All surveyed rooms”. If a specific room isn't mentioned, it means no room-specific deficiencies were identified and/or were corrected during the time of the audit. Please take a moment to go through the listed items and address them accordingly. Once you or your laboratory staff fixed the identified issues, a courtesy notification would be highly appreciated. As part of the survey, we've updated the Hazard Assessment of the room. For those rooms with changes to hazards and contacts, please download the updated door posting by following this link: Campus Door Postings<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/uofnelincoln.sharepoint.com/:f:/s/UNL-EH…>. Should you have any questions, concerns, or need further information, please feel free to reach out to us. Findings for Inspection: 16142 Code Answer Description Location Recommendation Observations Correct By Date Picture(s) BIO01 Def/Violation Disinfectant containers are not appropriately labeled (name, made/mfg. date and expiration date). Expired disinfectants are in use. 257 / Morrison Life Sciences Research Center Durable containers with working solutions of disinfectants must be labeled with the chemical name (and concentration if applicable), solution preparation or manufacture date, and the expiration date. Refer to the EHS SOP "Chemical Disinfectants for Biohazardous Materials" for more information. (https://ehs.unl.edu/sop/s-bio-disinfectants.pdf) Properly dispose of expired disinfectants. Most working solutions of disinfectants can be disposed of down the drain, but refer to the EHS Sewer Disposal List SOP prior to disposal. Bleach and ethanol disinfectant containers have no made or expiration dates marked on them. Lab worker indicates that they are refilled every week so they are never in danger of becoming expired. 04/17/2024 BIO03 Item of Concern A biohazardous spill kit is not available in the lab or is not appropriately stocked. Spills and contaminated surfaces and equipment are not appropriately cleaned and decontaminated. 257 / Morrison Life Sciences Research Center Please replace the missing components of the biohazard spill kit. The missing components include: Nitrile or latex gloves (multiple pairs), lab coat or disposable gown, safety glasses, surgical mask or face shield, Biohazard bags, disinfectant, tongs, small broom with dustpan, signage to post when cleaning up and a copy of spill cleanup procedures. Additional guidance on clean-up of spills of biohazardous materials as well as a complete list of minimum spill kit components can be found in the EHS SOP Spill and Exposure Response for Biohazardous Materials (https://ehs.unl.edu/sop/s-bio-spill_%26_exposure_response.pdf) Biohazard spill kit contains absorbent. Lab has all other items around the lab, but in the event of an emergency, it is ideal to have all clean up items in one location to make the process easier. N/A Environmental Health and Safety is committed to excellent customer service and we invite you to complete a Customer Satisfaction Survey to provide feedback on our services and staff. By taking a few moments to complete the survey (http://ehs.unl.edu/survey), you will be helping us to identify areas where we might need to focus our attention. Your participation is greatly appreciated.

Friday Social Event - Movie & Potluck
by Ivon Acosta Ramirez 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

Hi labmates, Dr. Iverson, The sunset is now at 7:40 pm. We will have a potluck as dinner and then, we will watch the movie. So, please bring something to share :) We will watch the movie: Elemental!. For giving rides, It will be easier for all of us to leave at the same time from the office. If possible, come prepared. But, if someone still needs a ride, we will figure it out. (I am hosting, I can't). Please bring blankets or whatever will make you enjoy the movie and have a recharging time, my house welcomes you 😊 Let me know if you have any questions!

SharePoint file
by Nicole Iverson 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

Hi group, I like the ’00 Items for Iverson to Review’ folder on our SharePoint drive – it is making things much easier for me. As I mentioned, after I have made edits/comments I’m moving things into a ‘done’ folder. Please remove items from this folder once you get them from me. This will make it easy for people to find their most recently edited documents. There are about 10 files in the folder right now, please look at it and see if any of the items are yours, if they are yours, please save them to your own computer/folder and remove them from the ‘done’ folder. Thanks, Iverson [signature_2936951039] Nicole Iverson, Ph.D. Associate Professor Department of Biological Systems Engineering Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources College of Engineering University of Nebraska–Lincoln 260 Morrison Hall, 4240 Fair Street, Lincoln, NE 68583 Cell: 732-648-3319 | iverson(a)unl.edu<mailto:iverson@unl.edu>| engineering.unl.edu/iversonlab<http://engineering.unl.edu/iversonlab/>
