We also discovered several understudied barriers some differences among smallholder farmers’ and their mobile that hinder adoption of mobile services: the influx of counterfeit phone usage practices.

Exposure to hazardous chemicals is not expected with normal handling and use. In particular, the cell or battery should not be opened or burned. Section III – Hazards Identification Emergency Overview: Do not open or disassemble cells or batteries or expose them to fire or open flame. Do not puncture or deform. Cells and batteries present a hazard only if mishandled in a way that causes damage to the cell or battery or compromises their integrity. Primary Routes of Exposure: Risk of exposure to hazardous materials will only occur if the cell or battery is physically, thermally or electrically abused to the extent that the integrity of the cell or battery is compromised. In this case, exposure to the electrolyte can occur through ingestion, inhalation, eye contact and skin contact. Potential Health Effects: If the battery or cell has been damaged or ruptured, the electrolyte solution, which is corrosive, could be released and cause burns to the eyes, skin or respiratory tract. Ingestion of the electrolyte can cause serious burns of the gastrointestinal tract. Section IV – First Aid Measures If you get electrolyte in your eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes without rubbing and immediately contact a physician.

  • Perceptions, and Experiences of a Participant in the Process Were Documented to Show the Informal Workings of the Agency That Outsiders Rarely See
    1^^^^^^^^^^"-'""ͣ-ͣ'* " ͣ ^^'='^'^1^^^m^^^^^^^^^fp^^Sf^-'^W^7W': ͣ ABSTRACT MICHELE A. DUBOW. Development of General Provisions for New National Air Toxics Standards under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. (Under the direction of DR. MORRIS A. SHIFFMAN) While Congress writes laws that determine national priorities for handling environmental problems, federal agencies write environmental regulations that bridge the gap between Congressional intent and actual implementation of statutes. In developing and codifying regulations, federal bureaucrats make policy decisions and negotiate to resolve conflicts within and outside their agencies. These conflicts usually remain hidden from the public and are not documented. Nevertheless, the content of regulations may be influenced by human and political factors as much as by competent scientific and technical research and policy judgements. Therefore, regulation writers must remain flexible to respond to events as they arise, especially ones that result in deviations from institutionalized systems for regulatory development. The process of developing a single regulation was traced to give insight into the regulatory development process at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Observations, perceptions, and experiences of a participant in the process were documented to show the informal workings of the Agency that outsiders rarely see. Two lessons drawn from this exercise are that the regulatory development process does not follow a "cookbook" formula and having a strategy to advance a regulation can help to ensure its successful development.

EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$4.20 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS College Role; Colleges; *Educational Needs; *Foreign Countries; *Higher Education; *School Community Relationship; *Social Responsibility; Universities ABSTRACT The university and the needs of contemporary society are discussed in relationship to the complexity and diversity of the interactions between universities and societies resulting from the diversity of traditions, resources, and socioeconomic contexts. Emphasis is placed on some past and present conceptions of the university, the university and rising needs, and the university and its new responsibilities. The author cautions against the formulation of judgments that are definitive in nature or claim universal applizability. Generalized conclusions are presented covering contradictions of the university, the sociology of the university, the university and violence, university freedoms and democracy, and the university ability to reform itself.
