Beamline Committees
Those working at the APS are expected to assure that their work is free of recognized hazards. As such they are expected take the initiative to arrange for assistance in evaluating their work as needed. The following beamline committees are one resource for meeting these evaulation needs. The committee membership includes division ES&H coordinators and a broad spectrum of individuals from all APS organization levels. A staggered turnover of members maintains continuity.
