ation, investigation, and verification.
Other Personal Protective Equipment: Safety shower
and eye-wash fountain in work area.
Leak and Spill Procedure: Evacuate area. Ventilate area
of spill. Cleanup personnel must wear protective equipment
and clothing sufficient to prevent inhalation of dust and con-
tact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Mix with inert material, and
gather up without raising dust. Transfer carefully into con-
tainer and arrange removal by disposal company. Wash site
of spillage thoroughly with water and detergent.
Waste Disposal: Follow all federal, provincial and local
regulations for disposal.
Handling Procedures and Equipment: IRRITANT, POS-
SIBLE TERATOGEN. Workers using this mateiral must be
thoroughly trained in its hazards and its safe use, and must
wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing.. Follow
routine safe handling procedures and good housekeeping
procedures to minimize dust. Use the smallest amoujnt pos-
sible for the p urpose, in an area with adequate ventilation.
Avoid all contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Avoid inhal-
ing dust. Do not use near sources of ignition or hot
surfaces. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Storage Requirements: Store in suitable, labelled contain-
ers, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight
and away from heat and ignition sources and incompatible
materials. Keep containers tightly closed. Protect from
damage, and inspect frequently for signs of leaking.

FIRST AID MEASURES
Specific Measures:
Eyes: Flush eyes thoroughly with gently running water,
holding eyelids open while flushing, for five to ten (5-10)
minutes, or until no trace of chemical remains. Get medical
advice if irritation develops.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing, including watches,
rings, belts, and shoes. Brush or wipe off dry material.
Flush skin with plenty of running water until no evidence of
chemical remains. If irritation develops get medical atten-
tion.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen and get
medical attention for any breathing difficulty.
