6. Accidental Release Measures
Containment If greater than 10000L is stored, secondary containment and emergency plans to
manage any potential spills must be in place.In all cases design storage to prevent
discharge to stormwater.
Emergency procedures In the event of spillage alert the fire brigade to location and give brief description of
hazard. Stop the source of the leak, if safe to do so. Wear protective equipment to
prevent skin, eye and respiratory exposure. Clear area of any unprotected personnel.
Contain using sand, earth or vermiculite. Do not use sawdust on concentrate. Prevent by
whatever means possible any spillage from entering drains, sewers, or water courses. (If
this occurs contact your regional council immediately).
Clean-up method Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert material). Rags are not recommended for the
clean-up of spills, as they may create fire or environmental hazard. Collect and seal in
properly labelled containers or drums for disposal. If contamination of crops, sewers or
waterways has occurred advise local emergency services.
Disposal Mop up and collect recoverable material into labelled containers for recycling or salvage.
Recycle containers wherever possible. This material may be suitable for approved
landfill. Dispose of only in accord with all regulations.
Precautions Spill may be a slip hazard. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye
contamination and the inhalation of vapours. Work up wind or increase ventilation.
7. Storage & Handling
Storage Avoid storage of harmful substances with food. Store out of reach of children.
Containers should be kept closed in order to minimise contamination. Keep from
extreme heat and open flames. Avoid contact with incompatible substances as listed in
Section 10.
Handling Keep exposure to a minimum, and minimise the quantities kept in work areas. See
section 8 with regard to personal protective equipment requirements. Avoid eye contact
and inhalation of vapour, mist or aerosols.

Engineering Controls
In industrial situations, it is expected that employee exposure to hazardous substances will be controlled to a level as far
below the WES as practicable by applying the hierarchy of control required by the Health and Safety at Work Act (2015) and
the Health and Safety at Work (General Risk and Workplace Management) Regulations 2016. Exposure can be reduced by
process modification, use of local exhaust ventilation, capturing substances at the source, or other methods. If you believe air
borne concentrations of mists, dusts or vapours are high, you are advised to modify processes or increase ventilation.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes Avoid contact with eyes. Use safety glasses and or chemical splash goggles if splashes
are possible. Select eye protection in accordance with AS/NZS 1337.
Skin Avoid repeated or prolonged skin contact. If discomfort is felt (e.g., if pre-existing
conditions exist, such as dermatitis, cuts or sensitive skin), gloves may be helpful. If you
suffer from dermatitis type skin conditions, use gloves. PVC, nitrile rubber gloves are
recommended. Protective gloves or suitably resistant material must comply with AS
2161. Replace frequently. Gloves should be checked for tears or holes before use.
Remove protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water prior to eating,
drinking or smoking.
