Cogswell Laboratory at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will be closed for the day on March 10, 2020, while the Environmental, Health, Safety & Risk Management department conducts a hazardous chemical disposal of chemicals and materials that are no longer needed for research or educational purposes. 

Any ongoing experiments spanning the duration of disposal will be off limits, and researchers should plan accordingly.

Precautions are being taken to conduct the disposal in the safest manner possible. These include scheduling the disposal over Spring Break and limiting access in and around Cogswell Laboratory to authorized personnel until the procedure is successfully completed.

Cogswell Laboratory is expected to re-open on March 11, 2020.
