Reporting Fire incidents in the lab/classroom

Syracuse University Fire and Life Safety Services suggests the following corrective actions be put in place going forward:

Any experiments involving open flame that are conducted in a classroom or other area that are not teaching laboratories, Fire and Life Safety (FLSS) must be notified 24 hours prior to the experiment taking place.
- The following information shall be provided:
  - Date and time of the experiment
  - Person in charge of the experiment
  - Where the experiment is to be conducted, i.e. Building Name and Room Number
  - Brief description of the experiment
- Fire and Life Safety staff will conduct a check of the area to ensure all protective measures are in place and will make a determination at that time if we need to assign FLSS personnel to be present for the duration of the experiment.
