Concern checklist for new construction and renovations
The purpose of this checklist is to assist Campus Facilities (physical plant) staff in identifying
environmental health and safety concerns early in the planning process. Some of the checklist items are
for notification only, while others will require significant lead time to resolve (e.g. if a permit is required).
Circle Yes, No, or NA (Not Applicable) for each question. More explanation can be provided at the end
or on a separate attachment.
Please return completed forms to: Environmental Health & Safety Office.
