For emergency responders
Environmental precautions
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Provide adequate ventilation.
Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put on appropriate
personal protective equipment.
If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information
in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in "For
nonemergency personnel".
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Small spill Move containers from spill area. Avoid dust generation. Using a vacuum with HEPA
filter will reduce dust dispersal. Place spilled material in a designated, labeled waste
container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large spill Move containers from spill area. Approach release from upwind. Prevent entry into
sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas. Avoid dust generation. Do not
dry sweep. Vacuum dust with equipment fitted with a HEPA filter and place in a closed,
labeled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor. Note:
see Section 1 for emergency contact information and Section 13 for waste disposal.
