Dear Folks:

I am attempting to contact as many academic research (and anyone else) 
institutions as I can to get new ideas for an inhouse compliance program. 
 While we have no real problems, we are trying to tweak our system 
following a reg. citation for lack of an "enforcement policy".   If you 
don't mind, please return your responses to the following.  
Embellishments, forms, policies, procedures by FAX or E-mail are welcome.

1.  Do you follow a set of established compliance items in your PI safety 
surveys?  Do you track, in a formal way, the safety compliance status of 
the PIs?

2.  Do you maintain a database of safety citation statistics?  Do you 
have a routine system for reporting PI compliance status to your RSC?  If 
so, please briefly describe the system.  How do you handle difficult PI 
compliance issues?

3.  Please add any other comments about compliance that you feel may be 
useful to another program.

I will compile all responses in a report to my RSC (no institution names 
associated with individual responses).  A copy of the report will be 
available if you would like to have it.  

Thanks for any assistance.
