Section VII – Spill And Leak Procedures |
|
Specific Steps To Be Taken In Case Material Is Released
Or Spilled: |
Provide ventilation, isolate area. Large Spills requires the use of self contained breathing apparatus. The spill should be absorbed (vermiculite, sawdust, Fuller’s earth). Pour liquid decontaminate (90% water, 8% ammonium hydroxide, 2% detergent) on spillage, allow to react for at least 10 minutes. Collect in open container or polyethylene sheet, and further decontaminate liquid. Remove container to safe place with loose cover. |
Specific Waste Disposal Method: |
Dispose of material in landfill according to Federal, State and local regulations. |

Protective Gloves: |
Neoprene, butyl rubber, vinyl and polyethylene |
Other Protective Clothing Or Equipment: |
PVC apron, safety shoe. Safety showers and eyewash should be available. |
Eye Protection: |
Safety goggles or glasses. |
