MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Gasoline,All Grades MSDS No.9950 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ACTIVATE FACILITY SPILL CONTINGENCY or EMERGENCY PLAN. Evacuate nonessential personnel and remove or secure all Ignition sources.Consider wind direction;stay upwind and uphill,If possible. Evaluate the direction of product travel,diking,sewers,etc. to confirm spill areas. Spills may infiltrate subsurface sail and groundwater,professional assistance may be necessary to determine the extent of subsurface Impact. Carefully contain and slap the source of the spill,If safe to do so. Protect bodies of water by diking, absorbents,or absorbent boom,If possible. Do not flush dawn sewer or drainage systems,unless system is designed and permitted to handle such material.The use of fire fighting foam may be useful In certain situations to reduce vapors.The proper use of water spray may effectively disperse product vapors or the liquid Itself,preventing contact with Ignition sources or areaslequipment that require protection. Take up with sand or other oil absorbing materials. Carefully shovel,scoop or sweep up Into a waste container for reclamation or disposal-caution,flammable vapors may accumulate In closed containers. Response and clean-up crews must be property trained and must utilize proper protective equipment (see Section 8), 7. HANDLING and STORAGE HANDLING PRECAUTIONS """USE ONLY ASA MOTOR FUEL'•'••' `DO NOT SIPHON BY MOUTH'—•' Handle as a flammable liquid. Keep away from heat,sparks,and open flamel Electrical equipment should be approved for classified area.Bond and ground containers during product transfer to reduce the possibility of static-Iniflated fire or explosion. Special slow load procedures for"switch loading"must be followed to avoid the static Ignition hazard that can exist when higher flash point material (such as fuel oil)Is loaded Into tanks previously containing low flash point products(such as this product)-see API Publication 2003,'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out Of Static,Lightning and Stray Currents. STORAGE PRECAUTIONS Keep away from flame,sparks,excessive temperatures and open flame. Use approved vented containers.Keep containers dosed and dearly labeled.Empty product containers or vessels may contain explosive vapors. Do not pressurize,cul,heat,weld or expose such containers to sources of ignition. Store in a well-ventilated area. This storage area should comply with NFPA 30*Flammable and Combustible Uquid Code". Avoid storage near incompatible materials. The cleaning of tanks previously containing this product should follow API Recommended Practice(RP)2013"Cleaning Mobile Tanks In Flammable and Combustible Liquid Service"and API RP 2016'Cleaning Petroleum Storage Tanks". WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES Emergency eye wash capability should be available in the near proximity to operations presenting a potential splash exposure. Use good personal hygiene practices. Avoid repeated and/or prolonged skin exposure. Wash hands before eating,drinking,smoking,or using toilet facilities. Do not use as a cleaning solvent on the skin.Do not use solvents or harsh abrasive skin cleaners for washing this product from exposed skin areas. Waterless hand cleaners are effective.Promptly remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. Use care when laundering to prevent the formation of flammable vapors which could ignite via washer or dryer. Consider the need to discard contaminated leather shoes and gloves.
