Just ask EPA’s Office of Research and Development which was instrumental in establishing the DCM Rule…oh wait, never mind.

Hey all,
We are updating our chemical hygiene plan and were wondering if you all could provide some guidance on how DCM should be written in the plan. We have a category for halogenated wastes, but with the new rules do we need to separate halogenated waste from DCM? Do we need to include more language about measuring exposure, etc?
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Warmest regards,
Jonathan
