UCSB Hazardous Materials Disclosure

To: Campus Purchasing Staff

Re: UCSB Hazardous Materials Disclosure, Annual reminder

As outlined below, Santa Barbara County Fire, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency have special regulatory requirements for certain hazardous materials and dangerous drugs that might come onto campus. Please contact me as soon as possible if any of the materials listed below will be ordered:

  1. Any material equal to or greater than the following:

    • 55 gallons of a liquid (very rare), or
    • 500 pounds of a solid (very rare), or
    • Compressed gases: new orders (not replacements) of large sized cylinders Greater than 36 inches of Ammonia, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Methane, or other hazardous gases.

    Gas cylinder height and volume chart. Displays cylinders ranging from 18 inches (22 cubic feet) to 60 inches (330 cubic feet). Highlighting cylinders greater than 36 inches in height (80, 122, 250, and 330 cubic feet) as requiring disclosure.
    Figure 1: Gas cylinder height comparisons (inches) and cubic foot capacities. New orders of cylinders greater than 36 inches require advance disclosure.

    I DO NOT need to be contacted for these non-hazardous gases: Compressed air, Argon, Carbon dioxide, Helium, Krypton, Neon, Nitrogen, and Xenon or combination mixture of these.

  2. Controlled substances (i.e., DEA listed drugs) and materials that can be converted to drugs (DEA listed precursors) are highly regulated. Principal Investigators must have a DEA registration to order controlled substances. Additionally there are special requirements to order other materials such as drug precursors. For questions regarding controlled substances or drug precursors contact Derek Iverson at x3743, or Derek.Iverson@ehs.ucsb.edu
  3. Please contact me immediately if any of the Chemical of Interest listed below (alphabetized) are to be ordered in any quantity. Specific safety requirements or reporting may be necessary:
