Other regulated substances. A liquid or solid which is an anesthetic, is noxious, or has other similar properties which could cause extreme annoyance or discomfort to humans. 

The most likely cause of a release of agent or other regulated substances that might pose a threat to public health would be an explosion or rupture of a pipe or vessel. Very small releases of agent, which posed no public health risk, occurred at JAC ADS and Tooele during maintenance operations. Wih the incorporation of lessons learned, as well as a QRA, the likelihood of such occurrences at the conclusion of the design process should be extremely small. 

All cyanide (CN-) compounds, barbituric acid and other regulated substances must be kept locked and accessible only to designated supervisors. Records must be kept of the usage and must contain the following information ... 

The ha2ard assessment is to iaclude identification of a worst-case scenario and other more likely scenarios for release of a regulated substance, and analy2e the off-site consequences of such releases. The release and consequence assessment is to iaclude the rate, duration, and quantity of the release, the distances for exposure or damage (usiag atmospheric, called "F" stabiUty and a 1.5-m/s wiad, and most-often-occurriag conditions), populations that could be exposed, and environmental damage that could be expected. 

Besides lead, there may be a variety of other substances that a worker may be exposed to. Earlier in this chapter we mentioned the possibility of mobile laboratories. If your site does have a mobile lab, there are a variety of other regulations that should be considered. Of course, hazard communication comes into play. A typical laboratory can have volumes of material safety data sheets in its libraries. Besides hazard communication, you should determine whether a chemical hygiene plan is a requirement. In addition, we need to consider how the laboratory might affect the site emergency plan. 

Human bodies are constantly exposed to a plethora of bacteria, viruses, and other inflammatory substances. To combat these infections and toxic agents, the body has developed a carefully regulated inflammatory response system. Part of that response is the orderly migration of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. Leukocytes literally roll along the vascular wall and into the tissue site of inflammation. This rolling movement is mediated by reversible adhesive interactions between the leukocytes and the vascular surface.

Unless permanently closed, all systems containing regulated substances must continue to comply with all the normal regulatory requirements. USTs closed for less than three months have no special requirements. USTs closed for between three and twelve months must leave vent lines open and cap all other lines. After 12 months out of service, USTs must be closed permanently. Before closing the UST system, the site must be assessed to ensure that no further release has occurred. 

This is a short item that provides information on the European Union regulations regarding the disposal/ destruction of polychlorinated biphenyls and other injurious substances. Very brief details of the regulations are provided. 

Members to regulate substances (within their own territories) when other countries (and the EEC itself) do not concur with such regulations. 

There are other complementary or similar elements shared by the two regulations. For example, both regulations share goals (1) to prevent the accidental releases of regulated substances and (2) to minimize the consequences of releases that do occur.
