This is a more interesting question than I thought. I had thought another piece of the definition of a laboratory included changing chemical processes and an educated workforce.

Anyway, I can imagine writing the CHP for the lab in a way that includes the lab staff's chemical safety expertise into this boundary you are exploring.
