Section!12.!!Ecological!Information!
There is a very limited amount of ecological data available on the effects of releases that may occur from this
product being released into the environment. Clean up of the spilled product would not be expected to leave any
hazardous material that could cause a significant adverse impact. There is a limited amount of ecological data
available on crystalline silica, primarily because it is a naturally occurring mineral. An adequate representation of
these data is beyond the scope of this document.!
Section!13.!!Disposal!Considerations!
Dispose of material as inert, non-metallic mineral in conformance with local, state and federal regulations.
Crystalline silica and limestone is not a RCRA hazardous waste.!
