Conducting a Chemical Inventory
Q. What is a chemical inventory? A. A chemical inventory is simply a list of all hazardous chemicals within a district/building. Q. What is a hazardous chemical? A. A hazardous chemical is any chemical that can create any physical change to/within a human body. A good example is: hand sanitizer. On your hands it may feel comfortable, but it is likely that if hand sanitizer was to enter our eyes it would cause a physical change. Many types of chemicals must be inventoried. NOTE: Personal and non-personal items that are listed as non-toxic from the manufacturer, are
not required to be inventoried. Also, any personal items/chemicals within personal wallets, handbags, purses, briefcases, etc., are not required to be inventoried.
Q. Why do we have to do this? A. It is a Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) requirement to have a chemical inventory on file containing the manufacture name and product name. Correlating SDS for each chemical are also required. A continuous survey of what we have on school district property ensures we are providing a safe and healthy environment.
1. Print a copy of the Chemical Inventory Sheet. Instructions:
2. Collect and record all chemicals within your area. This is achievable by starting in one location in the room, and writing down all chemicals in that location. Then moving to the next location within the room that holds additional chemicals.
3. Fill out the chemical inventory sheet as completely as possible. Try not to abbreviate manufacturer or product names. 4. Once the inventory is complete, provide the inventory forms to the district MSDSonline
administrator. NOTE: If CESA 10 in creating the database, the SDS coordinator can send copies of the inventory sheets to your EHS Consultant.
5. If the district is creating the database, please use the inventory forms. Your EHS consultant will train you to add products to your ebinder within the online system.
NOTE: Only administrators have the ability to add chemicals to the system. The general district password will only access a read only site.
Location: Define your building and room number as accurately as possible. **Do not abbreviate the manufacturer name. This is very important if the person conducting the inventory is not the same person creating the database. **Enter the “Product/Trade Name” as completely as possible. **Provide any information that may help identify the chemical.

Memorandum
To: All School District Staff From: _______________, District Administrator Date: 9/18/2013 Re:
Hazard Communication Program
Under OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200), which has been adopted by the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services, it is required that our district maintains a current Hazardous Chemical Inventory, a list of all hazardous chemicals in our district, and maintain a current library of Safety Data Sheets for each hazardous chemical within the district. In an effort to develop the inventory we will need to physically inventory our entire district. In order to streamline the process, we request that you survey your area for all hazardous chemicals. If you have brought any of these hazardous chemicals in from home, please take the hazardous chemicals home with you by (insert date). If you wish to keep any of these chemicals that are brought from home, you must obtain approval from the (Insert name of approver) prior to (date). The remaining district issued hazardous chemicals and any outside chemical that is granted approval should be inventoried on the attached inventory sheet. Any chemicals you no longer need or wish to keep will be brought to (where?) where containers will be available to ensure proper disposal (leave this sentence if you are willing and able to do this). Do not dispose of the chemicals on your own on district property for any reason. A hazardous chemical is defined as any chemical which is a physical hazard or a health hazard. Nontoxic materials are not to be included on the inventory. Nontoxic chemicals are clearly labeled as nontoxic. Hazardous chemicals are not clearly labeled as hazardous. Thus any chemical in your areas, including cleaning products, paint (include all colors), rubber cement, glue, hand sanitizer, etc… needs to be inventoried. If this is not clear or you have any questions please contact (who?) or myself, immediately. All staff, including teachers are required to inventory each of their own rooms or areas. (List each of the called out departments that are major generators). Note: teachers, you do not need to inventory district issued cleaning supplies. Those chemicals will be listed under the custodial department. If you are not sure if a chemical belongs on your list, include it on your list to error on the side of caution. Once the hazardous chemical inventory is complete an online SDS system will be created for our district. Additional information and training pertaining to the online SDS system will come in the near future. This is a great opportunity for our district and we appreciate your support. We request your completed inventory sheets be turned in to (whom?) no later than (insert date?). After this date, should anyone desire to bring a chemical from home, you will be required to seek permission from district administration to ensure safety data sheets are secured which will ensure, not only our district’s compliance, but more importantly our the safety of our students and staff. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact either (who?) or myself. We appreciate your cooperation and timely compliance in this matter. Thank you, (Add your signature here)
