Colorado Public Health Triage & Response Labs
Denver, COThe Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) is planning to design and build Triage and Response BSL3 Laboratories to support their mission of "protecting and preserving the health and environment of the people of Colorado" as it relates to hazardous materials and terrorism. The function of the Triage Laboratory is to receive, assess, screen, sub-sample and store primary specimens that are potentially Chem-Bio-Radiological (CBR) hazards with high security, chain of custody, decontamination, and shower in/out protocols. Both chemistry and microbiology personnel will use the Response Laboratory with flexible swing space between. The Laboratory will be used for regular exercises and training purposes, as well as non-routine, real crisis event situations. Construction is on hold for this project.
