ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Environmental precautions Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Environmental precautions Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up : Ensure clean-up is conducted by trained personnel only. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. : Do not allow contact with soil, surface or ground water. : Stop leak if safe to do so. Contain spillage, and then collect with noncombustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see section 13). Flush away traces with water. For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. : Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8. : No special environmental precautions required. : Stop leak if safe to do so.
