1 University of Pittsburgh Department of Environmental Health and Safety 3412 Forbes Avenue UPSB, 4 th Floor Pittsburgh, PA Phone: (412) Fax: (412) Memorandum TO: University Community FROM: Jay Frerotte Director, Environmental Health and Safety DATE: March 31, 2009 RE: DHS Chemicals of Interest In November 2007, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published the Chemical Facility Anti-terrorism Standard. As you may recall, these new rules required the University to conduct an inventory of DHS Chemicals of Interest and to submit this inventory to DHS. Subsequently, the University was required to register with DHS and to maintain an inventory of Chemicals of Interest. In order to maintain an accurate inventory, please order all Chemicals of Interest (see attached list) exclusively through the PantherBuy system. When ordering a Chemical of Interest through the PantherBuy system, the order will be automatically routed to EH&S for entry to the Chemicals of Interest inventory maintained by EH&S. Please implement this requested change in your ordering practices immediately. Your cooperation will be appreciated. For questions regarding the PantherBuy system, please contact the PantherBuy Team at pantherbuy@bc.pitt.edu. For information on DHS Chemicals of Interest or the applicable regulation, please contact Environmental Health and Safety at K:\Memos\LetterHeadChemicalsofInterest doc
