Hydrocarbon components may contribute to <br /> atmospheric smog. If released to the subsoils, petroleum middle distillate fuels will strongly <br /> absorb to soils. Groundwater should be considered as an exposure pathway. Liquid and vapor <br /> can migrate through the subsurface and preferential pathways(such as utility line backfill)to <br /> downgradient receptors. Middle distillates are potentially toxic to freshwater and saltwater <br /> ecosystems. Distillate fuels will normally float on water. In stagnant or slow-flowing waterways, a <br /> hydrocarbon layer can cover a large surface area. As a result, this oil layer can limit or eliminate <br /> natural atmospheric oxygen transport into the water. With time, if not removed, oxygen depletion <br /> in the waterway can cause a fish kill or create an anaerobic environment. Also,this coating <br /> action can also kill plankton, algae and water birds. <br /> SECTION 13: DISPOSALCONSIDERATIONS <br /> Maximize material recovery for reuse or recycling. If spilled material is introduced into a <br /> wastewater treatment system, chemical and biological oxygen demand (COD and BOD)will likely <br /> increase. Vapor emissions from a bio-oxidation process contaminated with this material might be <br /> a potential health hazard. Recovered non-usable material may be regulated by US EPA as a <br /> hazardous waste due to it's ignitibility(D001). In addition, conditions of use may cause this <br /> material to become a hazardous waste, as defined by Federal and State regulations. It's the <br /> responsibility of the user to determine if the material is a hazardous waste at the time of disposal. <br /> Transportation, treatment, storage and disposal of waste material must be conducted in <br /> accordance with RCRA regulations(see 40 CFR Parts 260-271). State and/or local regulations <br /> might be even more restrictive. Contact the RCRA/Superfund Hotline at 800-424-9346 or your <br /> regional US EPA office for guidance concerning case specific disposal issues. <br /> ISECTION 14: TRANSPORT INFORMATION <br /> The description shown may not apply to all shipping situations.
