Key data provided for each chemical/substance includes name (including synonyms/trade names), structure/formula, CAS/RTECS numbers, DOT ID, conversion factors, exposure limits, IDLH, chemical and physical properties, measurement methods, personal protection, respirator recommendations, symptoms, and first aid.

NIOSH Manual of Analytical Methods (NMAM) NMAM is a collection of methods for sampling and analysis of contaminants in workplace air, and in the blood and urine of workers who are occupationally exposed.

International Chemical Safety Cards An ICSC summarizes essential health and safety information on chemicals for their use at the "shop floor" level by workers and employers in factories, agriculture, construction and other work places.

Reducing Roofers' Exposure to Asphalt Fumes DHHS (NIOSH) Publication No. 2003-107 (September 2003) This guide is for roofers and contractors who work with hot asphalt on roofs. The guide lists steps for reducing exposure to asphalt fumes.

Asphalt Fume Exposures During the Application of Hot Asphalt to Roofs DHHS (NIOSH) Publication No. 2003-112 (June 2003) This document represents a collaborative effort of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA), the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA), the Asphalt Institute (AI), and the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers, and Allied Workers (UURWAW) to reduce worker exposures to asphalt fumes during the application of hot asphalt to roofs.

Hazard Review: Health Effects of Occupational Exposure to Asphalt DHHS (NIOSH) Publication No. 2001-110 (December 2000) This document is an evaluation of the health effects and other relevant data that have become available since publication of the 1977 NIOSH document Criteria for a Recommended Standard: Occupational Exposure to Asphalt Fumes. It includes an assessment of chemistry, health, and exposure data from studies in animals and humans exposed to raw asphalt, paving and roofing asphalt-fume condensates, and asphalt-based paints. Most important, the document serves as a basis for identifying future research to reduce occupational exposures to asphalt.

Engineering Control Guidelines for Hot Mix Asphalt Pavers DHHS (NIOSH) Publication No. 97-105 (January 1997) These guidelines originate from a collaborative effort by industry, government, and labor to develop and implement engineering controls for the asphalt paving industry

The Mt. Pleasant Township Municipal Authority's board of directors recently announced it will assume control of the Shupes Run sewage area from township officials.

At the authority's recent meeting, board President Charles Naggy said it would take about 30 days for the assets to transfer to the authority.

Assets include two pump stations and all of the lines in the project, which covers parts of the township just across the border from Mt. Pleasant Borough, including areas such as Slope Hill Road and Low, Shaft and Bridgeport streets.

With the authority taking on Shupes Run, there should be no noticeable changes except for the employees running the pump stations, and the tap-in fees going forward for new connections will be $2,200, Naggy said.

Authority solicitor Les Mlakar said the township, the municipality and Mt. Pleasant Borough will need to come to an agreement regarding fees borough officials have talked about instituting due to emergency repairs at its treatment plant earlier this year.

During the meeting, the board also voted to keep monthly meetings on the fourth Tuesday of each month for 2015, with the exception of November and December due to the holidays.

Those two meetings will be held on the third Tuesday of the month.

Township resident Greg Krynicky addressed the board again regarding its response to a complaint he previously filed in connection with damages he claims were caused to a property he owns in Calumet during construction of sewage lines.

Krynicky told the board he submitted new photographs of the purported damages on the property.

Mlakar told Krynicky he had assessed the damage at $200, which Krynicky did not find acceptable, he said. Mlakar informed him that the case was closed, and if he had a problem with it to file suit against the board.

SUGAR GROVE Seniors and disabled residents in Sugar Grove Township who need a ride to the doctor's office now can take advantage of a new transportation service.

The new program allows seniors age 65 and older, along with those residents with disabilities, to schedule rides for medical appointments between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sugar Grove Township and Aurora Township recently approved an intergovernmental agreement, paving the way for the program.

The program already had been in place in Aurora Township as part of Pace Suburban Bus Service's Ride in Kane program. Sugar Grove Township Supervisor Tom Rowe said the new agreement extends transportation services for seniors and disabled residents in Sugar Grove Township to all area hospitals and medical clinics.

So far, the response to the new program has been slow.

"Only four Sugar Grove Township residents have registered for the service," Rowe said Monday. "We're trying to get the word out. We're hoping things will pick up next year."

Residents who want to participate in the program must first call the Aurora Township office at 630-892-1999. Rowe said he is encouraging people to register right away, even though they might not be using the program for a while.

The cost is $4 per ride within a 10-mile radius and $1.50 per additional mile. A companion may ride along for free.

"It's curb-to-curb service," Rowe said. "They come right to your home and pick you up at the edge of your driveway."
