Updated for FY2009
The Boston Fire Department requires that all labs register on an annual basis. Part of the registration
process includes providing a detailed inventory of all hazardous chemicals in each lab. The chemical inventory will be captured
using a web form. This electronic form should be used to
enter all hazardous chemicals. For questions about the process, please contact Will Decaneas, Research & Academic
Affairs at wdecanea@bidmc.harvard.edu or 667-4195. For technical issues with
the web form, please contact Academic Computing Support at research@bidmc.harvard.edu
or 667-8415.
Reference materials: While we
can not give you a complete list of items that must be reported, we can provide two reference documents. First is a list of
hazardous chemicals that must be reported; second is a list that do not need to be included. Items not on either list must be
determined to belong on the inventory or not; for assistance, contact Dan Dancause, Environmental Health & Safety
ddancaus@bidmc.harvard.edu or 667-8815. |

| NOTE: Inventories for FY08 rooms have been archived due to the massive research lab moves. If you would like to move your old inventory to a new room (or even the same room), please email
research@bidmc.harvard.edu and send us the "old room number" moves to "new room number" and we will migrate existing records. |

CLS Chemical Pharmacy |
CLS is a high rise (>10 stories) building requiring strict limits on the amount of hazardous chemical stored on a
floor. To support the research labs in quickly ordering small quantities of chemicals, BIDMC started a chemical pharmacy that
will stock quantities of commonly used hazardous chemicals. The pharmacy is staffed on M-W-F from 11:30AM to 3:30PM. To order chemicals from the pharmacy, open linked Excel ordering
sheet, complete the form, save the file and email to Triumvirate at
clschemicals@bidmc.harvard.edu. |
