Environmental Safety

Towson University is like its own small city, and our environmental safety program aims to keep that city and its environment safe. We conduct routine building and grounds inspections, monitor campus operations and events, and train personnel to ensure that we're meeting safety standards and complying with federal and state regulations. Areas of concern include emergency response, drinking water quality (PDF), lead paint exposure (PDF), noise control (PDF), and spill prevention and control (PDF). We also monitor the university's driver improvement program, CDL controlled substance and alcohol program, non-hazardous waste disposal, underground and above ground storage tanks, and wastewater and surface water (NPDES) discharge permits.
