Chemical inventories are required to comply with a myriad of regulations imposed by the Department of Homeland Security, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Mecklenburg County Fire Marshal, and other agencies.

Davidson is transitioning to a computerized, bar code chemical inventory system called CHIMERA. Once fully implemented, CHIMERA will provide quick access to chemical inventories in buildings across campus and furnish pertinent chemical hazard information to faculty, staff and emergency responders. CHIMERA will also promote chemical reuse and reduce hazardous waste disposal costs.

Please email the Environmental, Health & Safety Manager at alstowe@davidson.edu for access to CHIMERA.

Individuals must be trained by a current CHIMERA user and register using the CHIMERA Registration link before access will be granted. Additional information can be found in the CHIMERA General Use Manual (PDF). 

After initial registration, the following link can be used to access CHIMERA for approved users.
