The spill response
information on the MSDSs describes what to do if you have a spill or leak of
the chemical. These procedures are
usually pretty general such as evacuating people from the area, notifying safety personnel, removing
sources of ignition, and providing ventilation. These procedures are not intended for
small, incidental spills that occur during normal use of the chemical. These usually can be wiped up using the
equipment you have on hand. However,
we are not equipped or trained to handle larger spills. If a larger spill occurs, r, you should get
people out of the immediate area and notify your supervisor, EHSC, or
HSO. If necessary let the fire
department handle the spill. They have
the training and equipment...you don’t.
