DCM in the Workplace

 

In April of 2024 the EPA finalized a rule designed to phase out the use of Dichloromethane (DCM), also known as Methylene chloride. Under this rule most uses of DCM will be prohibited.

EHS has been working with our partners on campus to eliminate DCM and DCM-containing products. If you have any questions on how these new regulations may affect your work, reach out to EHS today.
