ABSORB/OTHER ABSORB MATL. LG SPILL: ELIM ALL IGNIT SOURCES (FLARES,
FLAMES INCL PILOT LIGHTS, ELEC SPKS). PERSONS NOT WEARING PROT
EQUIP SHOULD BE EXCLUDED F ROM AREA OF SPILL UNTIL CLEAN-UP HAS
BEEN COMPLETED. STOP SPILL AT SOURCE. PVNT FROM SPREADING. IF
RUNOFF OCCURS, NOTIFY AUTH AS REQD. PUMP/VACUUM TRANSFER SPILLED
PROD TO CLEAN CNTNRS (OTHER INFO)
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:CNTNRS OF MATL MAY BE HAZ WHEN
EMPTIED. SINCE EMPTIED CNTNRS RETAIN PROD RESIDUES (VAP, LIQ,
