Part 1450, as incorporated by reference in § 4.2(A) of this Part. Said plan must also include a section regarding the purchase, storage, and disposal of potentially hazardous chemicals and the training of staff and students on their use.
4. C. School personnel (e.g., art teachers, shop teachers, classroom teachers, maintenance staff) must ensure compliance with 29 C.F.R. Part 1200, as incorporated by reference in § 4.2(A) of this Part, for those areas under their control or supervision. Safety data sheets for all chemicals stored, handled or used in those areas must be reviewed with the school’s chemical hygiene officer to ensure that the chemicals are appropriately managed in accordance with school’s chemical hygiene plan.

5. D. The written chemical hygiene plan required by this Part must include a prohibition on the use of the chemicals listed below.

   1. 1. State-approved career and technical education programs, as governed by 200-RICR-20-10-3, Regulations Governing Career and Technical Education in Rhode Island, shall be exempt from the chemical prohibition of § 4.2(A) of this Part, but must maintain a safe and healthy environment where risks are minimized through education, training, administrative and engineering controls, personal protective equipment, proper work practices, and the use of the safest available materials and products, in accordance with current occupational and environmental standards and Regulations.
