Immediately turn off or isolate any source of ignition (pilot lights, electrical
equipment, flames, heaters, etc.). Evacuate area and ventilate. Personnel
wearing proper protective equipment should contain spill immediately with inert
materials (sand, earth, chemical spill pads of cotton) by forming dikes. Dikes
should be placed to contain spill in a manner that will prevent material from
entering sewers and waterways. Large spill, once contained, may be picked up
using explosion proof, non-sparking vacuum pumps, shovels, or buckets, and
disposed of in suitable containers for disposal. If a large spill (5,000 pounds or
-500 gallons) occurs notify appropriate authorities according to SARA 304
and/or CERCLA 102(a) requirements. In the case of accident or road spill
contact Chemtrec at 800-424-9300.
Material will readily mix with water. If a large spill occurs notify appropriate
authorities (normally the National Response Center or Coast Guard at 800-424-
8802.
This product has been evaluated for RCRA characteristics and does not meet
the criteria of a hazardous waste if discarded in its purchased form. Under
RCRA, it is the responsibility of the user of the product to determine at the time
of disposal, whether the product meets RCRA criteria for hazardous waste.
This is because product uses, transformations, mixtures, processes, etc. may
render the resulting materials hazardous. All disposals must comply with
federal, state, and local regulations. The material, if spilled or discarded may
be a regulated waste. Refer to state and local regulations. Department of
Transportation (DOT) regulations may apply for transporting this material when
spilled. See Section 14.
To prevent contamination of drinking water supplies, and poisoning of children,
aquatic life, wildlife, and farm and domestic animals, ethylene glycol products
should never be discarded onto the ground, into surface waters, or into storm
sewers.
Product spills into the environment of one pound (-1 pint) or more must be
reported because of ethylene glycol listing in the 1990 Clean Air Act. For
information on reporting requirements for a spill located in a specific location,
call the EPA’s Chemical Preparedness Program Hotline [phone]).

Additional information:
Keep containers closed when not in use. Do not transfer to unmarked
containers. Empty containers retain product residue which may exhibit hazards
of material, therefore do not pressurize, cut, glaze, weld, or use for any other
purposes. Return drums to reclamation centers for proper cleaning and reuse.
Periods of exposure to high temperatures should be minimized.
Water
contamination should be avoided.

Personal protection:
Respiratory protection:
Eye protection:
Applicable mainly to persons in repeated contact situations such as packaging
of product, service/maintenance, and cleanup/spill control personnel.
None required if airborne cnocentrations are maintained below threshold limits
listed on page one. Otherwise a respiratory protection program meeting OSHA
1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed. Where misting may
occur, wear an MSHA/NIOSH approved (or equivalent) half-mask form
dust/mist air purifying respirator.
Eye protection is strongly recommended. If material is handled such that it
could be splashed into the eyes, wear safety glasses with side shields or
vented/splash proof goggles (ANSI Z87.1 or approved equivalent).
