It focuses primarily on mercury compounds and mercury-containing equipment used in curriculum activity. Many adequate substitutes exist for devices used in schools that contain mercury. When purchasing new equipment or replacing any mercury containing devices, check to make sure that any new items do not contain mercury. If no alternative is available, choose the product containing the least amount of mercury for that particular device. | | | Date Created: | 12 19 2002 | | | Agency ID: | IEPA/OPP/11-2002 | | | ISL ID: | 000000040546 Original UID: 20696 FIRST WORD: Mercury | |
