Laurie, here is the list of contents from our kits which we have distributed to our offices. All of the contents are stored in the 40 gallon container. Please note that we also provide hands-on training when these were distributed and we continue to refresh that information in department meetings from time to time. Feel free to contact me if you want additional information.
