12.ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
12.1. Environmental Fate
12.1.1. 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 anae
robic environment.
12.2. Ecotoxicity
12.2.1. 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.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
13.1. Waste Disposal:
13.1.1. Conditions of use may cause this material to become a "hazardous waste", as defined by federal or state
regulations. It is the responsibility of the user to determine if the material is a "hazardous waste" at the
time of disposal. Transportation, treatment, storage, and disposal of waste material must be conducted in
accordance with RCRA regulations (see 40 CFR 260 through 40 CFR 271). State and/or local regulations
