The following are links to several resources provided by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency
Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHS) Chemical Profiles and Emergency
First Aid Guides
This is information about each of the 300+ EHS currently listed as part of Section 302 of
the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act. Each chemical profile includes
physical/chemical properties, health hazards, fire and explosion hazards, reactivity data,
precautions for safe handling and use, and protective equipment for emergency situations.
The first aid guide provides signs and symptoms of poisoning and emergency treatment for
first responders. The chemical profiles and first aid guides may be accessed from either
the CAS No. or alphabetical list of EHS.
RCRA On-Line
The RCRA Online database is designed to enable users to locate documents, including publications
and other outreach materials, that cover a wide range of RCRA issues and topics. RCRA is the
acronym for the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976.
