Laboratory Safety Advisory Committee (LSAC)

The Laboratory Safety Advisory Committee (LSAC) is established by the authority of the President of the University of Oregon. The LSAC has delegated authority to review the use of hazardous materials and activites within University research, teaching, and development processes, including but not limited to instructional and research laboratories, art studios, and support functions. Through this authority, the Committee serves as an administrative advisory body for implementation of the UO Safety Policy and provides policy recommendations to the Senior Vice President and Provost, SERMC, VPFA and VPRI.

More about the Committee can be found in the UO Laboratory and Studio Safety Advisory Committee Charter 2023.
