Hazardous Materials Incident Data
 

HMIS incident data for 1998 is distributed in three data files:
  
	1998mat.dbf, 1998con.dbf,  and 1998rmk.dbf
  
The number of records and file size for these files are:
 
File Name		   Number of Records		File Size
 
1998mat.dbf                     15,643                   13.5M
1998con.dbf                     22,766                    6.6M
1998rmk.dbf                    102,382                    8.6M


For distribution, these files have been compressed with file compression software into three corresponding .zip files.  The .zip files have also been converted into self-extracting files, which have an .exe extension.

Windows Users:
	Click on each .exe file to download it.  
	Save the files in a new or empty directory on your local hard drive.
	Double-click each file (in Windows Explorer or My Computer) to extract the .dbf files.


Macintosh Users:
	Click on each .zip file to download it.    
	Save the files in a new or empty directory on your local hard drive.
	Use any file compression utility that can read .zip files to access and extract the .dbf files.
