Chemical Inventory List

To comply with the Emergency Planning Community Right-To-Know Act (EPCRA), mandated by Federal law, all chemicals on the Oklahoma State University campus must be inventoried. The law requires that the local fire department be informed of the types, quantities, and locations of these chemicals. To accomplish this task, the Chemical Inventory List (CIL) was developed.

The CIL requires detailed information concerning the chemical, i.e., type, quantity, location, etc. All information requested on the CIL must be provided. In lieu of using the CIL form, a computer-generated version will be accepted; but all information requested on the CIL form must be given. The following information is needed to complete the CIL:

Department:
The name of the proprietary department.
Inventory Supervisor:
The name of the employee responsible for the department's chemical inventory.
Campus Mail Address:
