Government regulations require that MSDSs be readily available to workers.
DEHS maintains a library of MSDSs to assist the campus community in complying with these regulations. We recommend that each unit maintain copies of MSDSs with its Written Hazard Communication Plan or Chemical Hygiene Plan. MSDSs from over 1400 other vendors Vendors are required to send MSDSs with all chemical purchases. For campus chemical purchases, MSDSs are sent to DEHS for the MSDS library. When DEHS finds a chemical on campus for which an MSDS is not available, DEHS will contact the manufacturer to obtain one.
