Peter Wallace, a senior instructor in the Department of Earth Sciences, has authored and formalized the special precautions required for the health and safety of many faculty and students participating in field work in his department. Mr. Wallace鈥檚 protocols provide for risk assessment and documentation, preparation and training for such risks. This has imparted field safety awareness and best practice throughout the teaching staff. And, his efforts have proven so valuable that other departments now use his safety manual in establishing their field work safety precautions.
He also has produced a comprehensive field guide and ensures that safety equipment is not only available, but up to date and maintained.
