HAZARDOUS MATERIALS - IDENTIFICATION AND MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS --`
1M4 JULY PAGE 1
1. SCOPE
This standard covers the identification of hazardous materials used and/or produced by Alcoa. Definitions coincide with those delineated in 29 CFR 1910.1200 - the OSHA Hazacd Communication Standard. In many instances, those materials considered as "hazardous* are or will be documented on Alcoa Material Safety Data Sheets (AMSDS). Most materials used and/or produced by Alcoa, whether "hazardous" or not, are listed in Engineering Standard Index 18.15.1.
2. DEFINITION
The definitions specified in OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard 29 CFR 1910.1200 which are delineated below, define physical and chemical hazardous materials for our purposes. These definitions are sufficiently broad so as to include many materials which may not pose a risk to Health, Safety, or the Environment; however, they are included to conform to the regulatory definitions under 1910.1200. Physical hazards include:
1) flammables 2) combustibles 3) compressed gases 4) explosives 5) organic peroxides 6) oxidizers 7) pyrophorics 8) reactives 9) water reactives
Health hazards Include:
1) carcinogens 2) irritants 3) corrosives 4) sensitizers 5) materials which are acutely toxic 6) materials which cause other serious toxic effects (i.e., teratogenicity,
reproductive dysfunction, etc.).
Moreover, materials listed in the OSHA PEL tables or the ACGIH TLV limits are by definition "hazardous" materials.
2.1 Physical Hazards.
2.1.1
Flammable. "Flammable" means a chemical that falls into one of the followingcategories:
(i) "Aerosol, flammable" means an aerosol that, when tested by the method described in 16 CFR 1500.45, yields a flame projection exceeding 18 inches at full valve opening, or a flashback (a flame extending back to the valve) at any degree of valve opening;
(ii) "Gas, flammable" means:
A) A gas that, at ambient temperature and pressure, forms a flam mable mixture with air at a concentration of thirteen (13) per cent by volume or less; or
B) A gas that, at ambient temperature and pressure, forms a range of flammable mixtures with air wider than twelve (12) percent by volume, regardless of the lower limit;
(iii)
"Liquid, flammable" means any liquid having a flashpoint below 100"F (37.8*C), except any mixture having components with flashpoints of 100P (37.8C) or higher, the total of which make up 99 percent or more of the total volume of the mixture.

2.2 Health Hazards. The following definitions apply to 'Health Hazards' as speci fied under 29 CFR 1910.1200. If a mixture has not been tested as a whole to determine whether the mixture is a health hazard, the mixture shall be assumed to present the same health hazards as do the components which comprise one percent (by weight or volume) or more of the mixture. For carcinogens, the figure is 0.1*. Materials which are present in quantities less than 1% would also be classified as 'Health Hazards' if one has evidence to show that they would exceed an established OSHA PEL or ACGIH TLV or could present a health hazard to employees in those concentrations.
2.2.1
Any chemical substance contained in 29 CFR Part 1910 Subpart Z Toxic and Hazardous Substances, Occupational Safety and Health Administra tion or OSHA, or any chemical substance covered within the latest edition of the document 'Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Sub stances and Physical Agents in the Work Environment' as published by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) is defined as a 'hazardous* material.

2.2.7
Target Organ Effects. Materials which can induce a specific, organotoxic effect at a concentration which is realistic in the worX environment. This category includes but is not limited to such serious toxic agents as mutagens, teratogens, hepatotoxins, etc.
2.3 Article.
Articles are not covered by the standard. An article* means a
manufactured item:
(i) which is formed toa specific shape or design during manufacture;
(ii)
which has end use function(s) dependent in whole or in part upon its shape or design during end use; and
(iii) which does not release, or otherwise result in exposure to a hazardous chemical under normal conditions of use.
The above criteria for classifying a material as hazardous are not meant to be allinclusive or completely adaptable to every situation which arises. In such cases, the Corporate Hazardous Materials Control Committee acting through its members will assist in deciding how a material should be classified.
3. ALCOA MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET (AMSDS)
3.1 The purpose of the Alcoa Material Safety Data Sheet is to assemble key infor mation on each `hazardous* material relating to:
a) hazard class b) material description c) ingredients d) physical properties e) safe handling and storage f) fire and explosion data g) emergency fire fighting procedures h) reactivity data i) health hazard information j) first aid procedures k) spill recovery and disposal l) special information relative to protection and precaution data.
It is intended that these data sheets be made available to key persons in the Safety, Industrial Hygiene, Environmental Control, Fire Prevention and Traffic Departments at all locations who need to be aware of the safety and health aspects of hazardous materials. These people in cooperation with their cor porate counterparts will have the responsibility for assessing, interpreting and passing judgment on information presented in these materials safety data sheets. Moreover, all plant personnel including hourly employees should have access to these sheets on an as needed basis.
3.2 Following is a description of some of the key items on the Material Safety Data Sheet to aid in understanding the completed form.
3.2.1
Phone Number. It will be the responsibility of each Alcoa location to select an appropriate telephone number for seeking emergency in formation in matters pertaining to hazardous materials. This number may be for one of the following location management individuals:
a) Safety Manager b) Industrial Hygienist c) Environmental Manager
d) Pire Marshall, or e) Some other person designated to handle this responsibility.
Consequently for Alcoa-developed MSDS sheets which cover internally used products, the phone number is intentionally left blank.

higher hardness than the surrounding area. This difference in hardness can be deter mined with a fine cut file. If the affected area is shallow, hand dressing may be sufficient to remove the damage and salvage the hook. Such dressing should be followed by magnetic particle or dye penetrant testing to make certain any cracks have been com pletely removed.
8. FREQUENCY OF INSPECTION
This will, of course, depend upon the rate of use. Hooks which are in regular service shall be visually inspected daily by the person using the hook.
Hooks in regular service shall be dimen sionally checked for overloading and wear monthly, and the dimensions recorded on the record card along with the name of the inspector. The inspector shall be a person regularly responsible for this check. This same person shall also be responsible for an annual crack inspection which shall be noted on the record card.
9. WELDING
The general rule is that welding is not permitted on hooks. Exceptions to this rule are sometimes made in the case of handles. These exceptions must be covered in detail on the hook drawing which should show weld location, welding rod and procedure and any subsequent thermal treatment required for stress relief.

Foe MSDS sheets for commercial Alcoa products, a central security phone number (412-553-4001) which is accessible 24 hours a day has been established. When calls are received at this station, they will be referred to appropriate individuals (i.e., Industrial Hygiene, Safety, Medical, Environmental) within the organization for handling. A formal procedure has been established to address these needs.
Hazard Class. Categories are provided which specify the particular physical" and "health" hazards which pertain to the chemical product in question. Mote than one hazard class may be applicable for a given substance. Classifications conform to those defined in the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard 29 CFR 1910.1200.
Section 1 - Material Description. This section lists the chemical name and formula and other designations or synonyms. Chemical name refers to the scientific designation of a chemical. The common name referenced at the top of the sheet means a designation or identification such as code name, trade name, brand name, or generic name used to identify a chemical other than by its chemical name. Section I also provides the Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) number and the manufacturer where applicable.
Section II - Ingredients and Health Hazard Data. This section in cludes ingredients, composition, concentrations and health hazard data which indicates acceptable levels of exposure.
3.2.4.1
Exposure Limits. Values are published by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Mine Safety and
Health Administration (MSHA), and American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). Exposure limits used by OSHA are known as permissible Exposure Limits PELS. ACGIH limits are referred to as threshold limit values (TLVs).
Exposure limits are either ceiling concentrations (peak ex
posures) or time weighted averages (TWA). Most are TWA.
TWA and/or ceiling exposure values refer to the approximate
maximum concentrations which most employees may be exposed
to day after day without adverse health effects. The OSHA
PELS and MSHA limits, which are the legal limits, should be
followed in most instances. ACGIH values should be followed
in place of the OSHA PEL and MSHA limits in those cases
where the Corporate Industrial Hygiene Division decides that
these values are more appropriate than the OSHA PELS and
MSHA limits to protect employees' health.
In those
instances where OSHA or ACGIH limits are not sufficient to
provide adequate protection, an Alcoa internal limit will be
referenced. Units for TLV and PELS are usually ppm (parts
per million) or mg/nA (milligrams per cubic meter).
3.2.4.2 Toxicity Terminology.
a) LD50 - "Lethal Dose Fifty' - The calculated dose of a particular chemical substance which results in the death of 50% of a given population by any exposure route other than inhalation. The exposure route (oral, dermal, intravenous, etc.) needs to be specified. When the per centage of population varies from fifty, it is denoted by changing the numerical subset value to reflect the particular lethal percentage (i.e. LD^q would repre sent the calculated dose of a particular chemical sub stance which results in the death of 10% of a given
population).
b) LDLo - "Lethal Dose Low' - The lowest dose of a par ticular chemical substance reported to have caused death in a given population when introduced by any route other than inhalation. The exposure route (oral, dermal, intravenous, etc.) needs to be specified.

When the percentage of popu lation varies from fifty, it is denoted by changing the numerical value to reflect the particular lethal per centage (i.e. LC15 would represent the air concen tration of a particular chemical substance which results in the death of 15% of a given population).
d) LCLo - "Lethal Concentration Low" - The lowest airborne concentration reported to have caused death in a given population when administered by inhalation for a speci fied period of time.
e) TDLo - "Toxic Dose Low" - The lowest dose of a par ticular chemical substance which has been reported to produce a specified toxic effect in a given population when introduced by any route other than inhalation. The exposure route (oral, dermal, intravenous, etc.) needs
to be specified.
f) TCLo - "Toxic Concentration Low" - The lowest concen tration in air for a particular chemical substance which has been reported to have produced a specified toxic effect when administered by inhalation in a given popu lation.
g) (Skin) - The connotation of "skin" when used in con junction with a TLV or PEL indicates that skin exposure itself may be dangerous as a result of systemic absorp tion. It is possible that even though the air concen tration may be below the prescribed TLV limit value, a hazard may still exist as a result of skin contact and absorption for those compounds characterized by "skin*.
h) IDLH - Concentrations which are immediately dangerous to life or health.
