Ecological Information

Ecotoxicity: Analysis for ecological effects has not been conducted on this product. However, if spilled,

this product and any contaminated soil or water may be harmful to human, animal, and

aquatic life. Also, the coating action associated with petroleum and petroleum products can

be harmful or fatal to aquatic life and waterfowl

Environmental Fate: An environmental fate analysis is not available for this specific product. Plants and animals

may experience harmful or fatal effects when coated with petroleum products.

Petroleum-based (mineral) lubricating oils normally will float on water. In stagnant or

slow-flowing waterways, an oil layer can cover a large surface area. As a result, this oil layer

might limit or eliminate natural atmospheric oxygen transport into the water. With time, if not

removed, oxygen depletion in the waterway may be sufficient to cause a fish kill or create an

anaerobic environment. This material contains phosphorus which is a controlled element for

disposal in effluent waters in most sections of North America. Phosphorus is known to

enhance the formation of algae. Severe algae growth can reduce oxygen content in the

water possibly below levels necessary to support marine life.
