An eligible academic entity shall develop and retain a written
"Laboratory Management Plan" (LMP), or revise an existing written plan. The LMP
is a site-specific document that describes how the eligible academic entity
will
shall
manage unwanted materials in compliance with rules
3745-52-200
to
3745-52-216
of the Administrative Code. An eligible academic entity may write one LMP for
all the laboratories owned by the eligible academic entity that have opted to
use rules
3745-52-200
to
3745-52-216
of the Administrative Code, even if the laboratories are located at sites with
different U.S. EPA identification numbers. The LMP shall contain two parts with
a total of nine elements identified in paragraphs (A) and (B) of this rule.
"Part I" of the LMP shall describe procedures for each of the elements listed

for each of the elements listed in paragraph (B) of this rule. The specific
actions taken by an eligible academic entity to implement each element in "Part
II" of the LMP may vary from the procedures described in the LMP without
constituting a violation of rules
3745-52-200
to
3745-52-216

3745-52-208
of the Administrative Code].
(b)
For removals when maximum volumes are exceeded:
(i) Describe the intended best practices for

3745-52-208
of the Administrative Code].
(ii)
Describe the intended best practices for communicating that maximum volumes of
unwanted materials have been exceeded.

clean-outs [see the required standards in paragraphs (A)(1) to (A)(3) of rule

to safely dispose of chemicals that become more dangerous when the expiration
date of those chemicals is exceeded or as those chemicals degrade.
(d) Procedures for the timely
characterization of unknown chemicals.
