If you work with chemicals at Augusta University, you are required to participate in our Chemical Inventory Program.
The Chemical Safety Office has developed the Chemical Inventory Program and uses a web-based database for managing chemical inventories. The database collects,
stores, and maintains chemical data for "cradle-to-grave" management and tracking
of all hazardous chemicals brought on site, and compiles reports from the data collected
for institutional decision makers and federal, state, and local regulators. All chemical
users should do Chemical Inventory Database Training before accessing the database.
Updating Inventory
Principal Investigators and other chemical users are required to maintain current inventories by completing semi-annual reviews of their inventory and updates to their database accounts.
Don't forget! Updates are to be completed at least 31 days before the report dates of January 1st and July 1st through the Chemical Inventory Database.

Federal laws dictate the standards for collecting, storing, and maintaining chemical inventories, including how we produce all regulatory reports from the data collected.
All institutions or companies that use or store hazardous chemicals must complete
and submit a SARA Title III, Tier II report annually in February of every calendar
year as part of the EPCRA emergency planning requirements.
Under the Georgia Public Employees Hazardous Chemical Protection and Right-to-Know Rules Law, all University System of Georgia institutions must submit chemical lists to the Local Emergency Planning Committees (LEPC) and the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC) in January and July of every calendar year.
