ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES
In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable
regulations. US regulations require reporting releases of this material to the environment which exceed the
applicable reportable quantity or oil spills which could reach any waterway including intermittent dry creeks. The
National Response Center can be reached at [phone].
PROTECTIVE MEASURES
Avoid contact with spilled material. See Section 5 for fire fighting information. See the Hazard Identification
Section for Significant Hazards. See Section 4 for First Aid Advice. See Section 8 for advice on the minimum
requirements for personal protective equipment. Additional protective measures may be necessary, depending
on the specific circumstances and/or the expert judgment of the emergency responders.
For emergency responders: Respiratory protection: respiratory protection will be necessary only in special
cases, e.g., formation of mists. Half-face or full-face respirator with filter(s) for dust/organic vapor or Self
Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) can be used depending on the size of spill and potential level of
exposure. If the exposure cannot be completely characterized or an oxygen deficient atmosphere is possible
or anticipated, SCBA is recommended. Work gloves that are resistant to hydrocarbons are recommended.
Gloves made of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) are not water-resistant and are not suitable for emergency use.
Chemical goggles are recommended if splashes or contact with eyes is possible. Small spills: normal antistatic
work clothes are usually adequate. Large spills: full body suit of chemical resistant, antistatic material is
recommended.
SPILL MANAGEMENT
Land Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Recover by pumping or with suitable absorbent.
Water Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Confine the spill immediately with booms. Warn other
shipping. Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents. Seek the advice of a specialist
before using dispersants.
Water spill and land spill recommendations are based on the most likely spill scenario for this material;
however, geographic conditions, wind, temperature, (and in the case of a water spill) wave and current direction
and speed may greatly influence the appropriate action to be taken. For this reason, local experts should be
consulted. Note: Local regulations may prescribe or limit action to be taken.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Large Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Prevent entry into waterways,
sewers, basements or confined areas.
