The Hazardous Materials Information Exchange (HMIX) is a computerized bulletin board set up especially for the distribution and exchange of hazardous materials information. The HMIX provides interested persons with a centralized database for sharing information pertaining to hazardous materials emergency management, training, resources, technical assistance and regulations. With the HMIX, one can retrieve the information, provide information to other users or interact with peers concerning different incident management techniques. To serve the entire hazardous materials community, the HMIX is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with the exception of short interruptions for system maintenance. Each user is allocated 60 minutes of access time per session. The system automatically tracks the time used and informs you of the time remaining. Please note that the HMIX is not intended to provide assistance during an actual emergency.
