Chemical Handling

Inventory

Chemical inventory is used to keep track of chemicals that you and your faculty supervisor purchase, use, store or ship.
The link to update your supervisor’s inventory is found under EHS Assist on the EHSRM hazardous materials page.
Updating the faculty chemical inventory is the responsibility of the faculty member or an assigned individual working in the lab.

Storage

ALL chemicals must be segregated based on compatibility in order to prevent dangerous chemical reactions that result in serious harm to users.
Follow the NFPA rating found on Safety Data Sheets (SDS) or view the information and templates provided by EHSRM.

Use

When handling hazardous chemicals, you must read the handling protocols for your chemicals. You can use the SDS provided by the distributor/manufacturer, or you can find information on the EHSRM hazardous materials page.

Disposal

All used or surplus chemicals have a specific method for disposal. Refer to the SDS for information or contact Kris Riley, 907-474-5617 or Pete Reynoldson, 907-474-7889.
If you are disposing of a hazardous chemical, request pickup through EHS Assist on the EHSRM hazardous materials page.

Shipping Chemicals to and from UAF

To ship chemicals to and from the field OR to another facility, you MUST SHIP THROUGH A CERTIFIED SHIPPER.
