Thank you for the reference, Tammy. I did get that level of conformity: they are going to be storing them in a proper flammables cabinet and still no more than 25 gallons.

Look at UC San Diego's Site. They have good references and visuals your faculty should be able to follow, including where to buy some of the items needed.

Also, I believe they can only store a maximum of 25 gallons total outside a flammable cabinet.

My faculty are ignoring all safety recommendations lately and have chosen to start getting all flammable solvents for research in 20L metal drums. What type of protocols and equipment should be in place for the transfer of the solvents from these containers?

Thanks,
Monique
