possible, observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate
<br /> techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping.Where feasible
<br /> and appropriate, remove contaminated soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable
<br /> containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable regulations.
<br /> Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response
<br /> Center at(800)424-8802 as appropriate or required.
<br /> SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
<br /> Precautionary Measures: DO NOT USE IN HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEMS in the vicinity of
<br /> flames, sparks and hot surfaces. Use only in well ventilated areas. Keep container closed.
<br /> General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage
<br /> and drainage systems and bodies of water.
<br /> Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when
<br /> handling this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but
<br /> may not, by themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of
<br /> generating and accumulating an electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere(including
<br /> tank and container filling, splash filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading,filtering,
<br /> mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations)and use appropriate mitigating procedures. For
<br /> more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible
<br /> Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77, 'Recommended Practice on Static
<br /> Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API)Recommended Practice 2003,
<br /> 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents'.
<br /> Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to
<br /> empty container or it may rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue
<br /> (solid, liquid, and/or vapor)and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut,weld, braze, solder,
<br /> drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of
<br /> ignition. They may explode and cause injury or death. Empty containers should be completely
<br /> drained, properly closed, and promptly returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly.
<br /> SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
<br /> GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
<br /> Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits,job
<br /> activities, and other substances in the work place when designing engineering controls and
<br /> selecting personal protective equipment. If engineering controls or work practices are not
<br /> adequate to prevent exposure to harmful levels of this material, the personal protective
<br /> equipment listed below is recommended. The user should read and understand all instructions
<br /> and limitations supplied with the equipment since protection is usually provided for a limited time
<br /> or under certain circumstances.
<br /> ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
<br /> Use in a well-ventilated area.
<br /> PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
<br /> Eye/Face Protection: No special eye protection is normally required. Where splashing is
<br /> possible,wear safety glasses with side shields as a good safety practice.
<br /> Skin Protection: No special protective clothing is normally required.Where splashing is possible,
<br /> select protective clothing depending on operations conducted, physical requirements and other
<br /> substances in the workplace. Suggested materials for protective gloves include: 4H (PE/EVAL),
<br /> Nitrile Rubber, Silver Shield, Viton.
<br /> Respiratory Protection: No respiratory protection is normally required.
<br /> If user operations generate an oil mist, determine if airborne concentrations are below the
<br /> occupational exposure limit for mineral oil mist. If not,wear an approved respirator that provides
<br /> adequate protection from the measured concentrations of this material. For air-purifying
<br /> respirators use a particulate cartridge.
<br /> Use a positive pressure air-supplying respirator in circumstances where air-purifying respirators
