My question is the following: Is that square footage for the *entire* clinical laboratory or *only* the histology area of the lab? My inclination is to say the entire clinical lab, not just histo, but I need to be certain. I am referring to the AHCA NFPA 99 item 11.7.2 for the state of Florida. The following is the exact wording: 11.7.2.3.2 The total volume of CLass I, II, and IIIA liquids, including those contained in approved storage cabinets and safety cans, shall not exceed 7.57 L (2 gal) per 9.29 m2 (100ft2) (sorry, I couldn't do a superscript!) Can anyone offer any help on this? Thanks! hopper _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Powerful Free email with security by Microsoft. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/196390710/direct/01/_______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
