Subject: [DCHAS-L] Undergraduate instructional lab guidelines

Fellow DCHAS-L members:

My college is in the process of designing and planning new labs which will be used for undergraduate general and organic chemistry.  We are in need of guidelines, specifically with respect to number and nature of fume hoods in a 24-student lab.

Is there a Web site where authoritative information on this subject can be found?

Thank you.
