Material is approximately 80% water. Material should only pose a hazard once all water has boiled off, leaving
a dry residue. The residue contains oxidizers that can contribute to, or accelerate a fire.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES
Keep upwind of fire. Use water spray to cool containers exposed to fire. Wear full protective clothing including
self-contained breathing apparatus.
SECTION 6 - ENVIRONMENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILL
Absorb small spill with inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth) then place in a chemical waster container.
LARGE SPILL
Contain large spill with sand or earth. Do not use combustible materials such as sawdust or paper. Use either
plastic or metal shovel to transfer absorbed waste material into a clean waste drum. Prevent runoff from entering
into storm sewers and ditches which lead to non-waste water ways. Use OSHA-approved self-contained
breathing apparatus, rubber gloves, protective eyewear, and protective clothing.
