Chemical Accident Prevention Program (CAPP)
What's New

Mercury Added as a CAPP Substance
Mercury was added to the CAPP list of highly hazardous substances with a threshold quantity of 200,000 lbs. The permanent regulatory amendment was adopted by the State Environmental Commission on September 7, 2007 and became effective on October 31, 2007. The Nevada State Legislature directed this action in the 2007 session with the passage of Senate Bill 118.

Substance Data Forms Can Now Be Accessed through the Regulated Substance Info Page
Chemical-specific data forms have been developed for numerous highly hazardous substances. They are intended to provide a quick reference to physical properties, toxicity information and regulatory information. Access these forms through the Regulated Substance Information Page. Note that more forms will be linked as they are finalized.

New Employee
CAPP would like to welcome Jeffrey Kinder, PE as a member of our staff. Jeff brings a wealth of industry experience to the program. He started in September, 2007 and is currently participating in site inspections and helping with the development of program guidance material.
