  1. All materials, goods, supplies and equipment ordered by TRU and furnished by an independant supplier shall be packaged and shipped in accordance with all Federal, Provincial and Municipal laws and regulations.
  2. Where any substance designated as a controlled product under the WHMIS legislation is supplied, the necessary documentation, including, but not limited to the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) shall be provided to the TRU Occupational Health and Safety Department at the same time as the shipment is made.
