Mar 07, 2008

CDC will host an open meeting of the Advisory Committee on Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention on March 18-19, 2008, at the CDC Global Communication Center, Roybal Facility in Atlanta. ACCLPP consists of 13 regular voting members knowledgeable in fields associated with childhood lead poisoning who have been selected by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The overall goal of the committee is to provide advice that will assist the Department and the nation in reducing the incidence and prevalence of childhood lead poisoning. Although open to the public, the meeting will have limited space vailable. Due to current security measures, a valid government issued identification card with photo is required for admittance into the facility.

Upon arrival, individuals should ask for the meeting by name: CDC Advisory Committee on Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention. For more information, visit www.cdc.gov/nceh/lead/events/calendar.htm.

Ventis® Pro5

The Ventis Pro5 is the most flexible connected gas monitor on the market, giving you the power to protect workers from up to five gases, manage worker safety from remote locations, and simplify team communication to take the guesswork out of gas detection. It automatically shares real-time gas readings, man-down, and panic alarms between peers – meaning the entire team knows who is in danger and why. By sharing real-time data, workers can also maintain continuous communication without the need for additional infrastructure or devices. Visit us at AIHce booth #927 to learn more! 3
Vaask

Vaask (V-ahh-sk) is inspired by the Norwegian word for “wash” and embodies the desire for a more modern class of clean. The touchless hand sanitizing fixture provides a superior performance engineered for no drips, no mess. The laser sensor accurately dispenses sanitizer from the 2-liter sanitizer cartridge, refillable with any alcohol-based gel of your choice. Vaask can be customized to complement the design of any space and comes in three mounting options. 3
