Notes
Key decisions in this example:
- Item 1 (CRC 2-26): Included because even small aerosol cans in work vehicles count as stored hazardous chemicals.
- Item 2 (Isopropyl Alcohol): SDS date checked to ensure it is current (within 5 years).
- Item 4 (Bleach): Domestic bleach is included because workplace quantities create a risk that requires management.
- Review Date: Set to 5 years in the future as a reminder to check SDS updates.
