DEPARTMENTS.
1. At the same time that an employer provides the information to
employees required under division II, the employer shall submit to
the local fire department a list of hazardous chemicals which are
consistently generated by, used by, stored at, or transported from
the employer's facility. The information shall be provided in
sufficient specificity that the local fire department is informed of
the nature of the hazardous chemicals, the hazards presented by the
chemicals, and the appropriate response in dealing with an emergency
involving the hazardous chemicals. The information shall conform to
guidelines adopted by the labor commissioner. The employer shall
send the information by certified mail. The labor commissioner shall
adopt rules exempting employers from this requirement when buildings
or structures do not contain significant amounts of a hazardous
chemical.
