Chemical-specific information must always be available through labels and safety data sheets.

29 CFR 1910.266 · Logging operations

The number of first-aid kits and the content of each kit shall reflect the degree of isolation, the number of employees, and the hazards reasonably anticipated at the work site.

29 CFR 1910.266(f)(1)(ii)
