Chemical Safety Day Program Registration

Dear Education Professional:

The Chemical Safety Day Program is again being offered during the coming spring, summer, and fall months. The program is designed to assist schools and colleges in disposing of unwanted chemicals and hazardous waste from science, art, industrial technology, and maintenance departments. The program is operated by the University of Minnesota with help from the Minnesota Department of Education.

All Participants are required to have a Federal Environmental Protection Agency Identification Number in order to participate in the Chemical Safety Day Program.

Check with your business manager, science instructors, bus maintenance and custodial personnel to see if your school, college or institution already has a federal “EPA ID Number.” If you do not, or are not sure, call your metropolitan county office or, if you are located in greater Minnesota, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for assistance at (800) 657-3864 or (651) 297-8358.

If your school is interested in participating, please contact the Chemical Safety Day Program by completing and submitting the enclosed pre-addressed reply/information form as soon as possible.  Print it and submit it to Robbie Shuff at:

(612) 626-1553              Fax: (612) 626-1571              email: Shuff001@umn.edu

Working together we can make your school, community, and the environment a safer place to work and live.
