associated with the chemical aren't deleted.

2. Select Environmental Management icon (![environmental management icon]()).
3. Select Chemicals list, and then select All.
4. Open a chemical record and select the More actions icon (![more actions icon]()).
5. Select Delete and then select Delete in the dialogue box.
