(MSPS: 731678) Page 9 of 10 <br /> Spilling of gasoline can result in environmental damage. <br /> t„ Gasoline floats on water and evaporates rapidly from water or soil surfaces. However,spilled <br /> gasoline may penetrate soil and could contaminate groundwater. <br /> Gasoline is biodegradable but in situations of low oxygen,such as in soil below grade or in <br /> groundwater, may persist for many years. <br /> Gasoline does not readily dissolve in water but will be adsorbed to soils. Gasoline in the <br /> environment can be toxic to plants and animals. <br /> 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS <br /> This material,if discarded as produced,would be a RCRA"characteristic"hazardous waste due to the <br /> characteristic(s)of ignitability(D001) and benzene (0018).
