I'm afraid he's right. The label and SDS should reflect the hazards of the product in the form and dilution that it is in. That said, for my art and theater people, I'm just happy if they have an SDS on the undiluted product and have a label that refers to the SDS. The art and theater faculties are a LONG way from being able to write a GHS label for their various solutions. EHS would have to bring their bedding and move into these departments to keep up with the writing of these labels. And some of the amounts of solutions really warrant it, such as the spigot containers in wet photography, the big etching tank and tray solutions, and the like.
However, if you are supplying this stuff to others, you might want to think on it.

Please let me start to wish Monna Happy Birthday!!!!
My concern is the following. We run a Chemistry Outreach program to local high schools.We provide some different types of equipment and small quantities of chemical solutions to these sites. I was questioned today by an individual that came from industry and now is working in academia. The concern was that the SDS should reflect not only the chemical but the form it is in. For example, I prepared a 0.1M Magnesium Sulfate solution. I usually provide an SDS of Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate solid and not of the solution I prepared. Is that wrong? I researched OSHA and did not see anything in the language? Is there anything in the new GHS system? I could not find anything. I appreciate everyone's help and input.
Thanks,
