Only CA, NJ have indoor air quality regs
BUT OSHA’s General Duty Clause may apply. [There are guidelines.]
Common sources of indoor odors: Cleaning supplies, mold, building materials,pesticides, intermittent processes Some options: Increase ambient air
exchanges to dilute odors Reduce emissions at source
Source capture local exhaust reduces process emissions, e.g., mixing cleaners, quick use of spray adhesive, etc. Ambient air cleaners, also called local exhaust ventilation, act as secondary engineering control to capture emissions from building materials, renegade fumes
OSHA says kitchens, labs, maintenance shops, garages, beauty salons, toilet rooms, trash rooms, soiled laundry rooms, locker rooms, copy rooms and other specialized areas may be a source of pollutants.
Another name for dust: pharmaceutical powder
Proposed new regulations for compounding pharmacies may require changes to the pharmacy building. Engineered air source-capture and ambient-air solutions can help.
