This product is not considered to be more than a slight irritant under normal conditions of use. Liquid may be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts if large areas of skin are exposed. Prolonged or repeated contact with the skin may cause defatting of the skin leading to redness, itching, inflammation, cracking, dermatitis (rash) , and passible secondary ir.fection. High pressure skin injections are serious medical emergencies. The appearance of injury may be delayed for a few hours, but may cause tissue to became swollen, discolored and extremely painful; permanent damage or death may result without adequate medical treatment. INGESTION The major health threat of ingestion occurs from the danger of aspiration (breathing) of liquid drops into the lungs, particularly from vomiting. Aspiration may result in chemical pneumonia (fluid in the lungs), severe lung damage, respiratory failure and even death. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal disturbances, such as irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, ar.d central nervous system effects similar to intoxication by ethyl alcohol. Acute symptoms of intoxication are mast common, including excitation, restlessness, incoordination, euphoria, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, and fatigue. In more severe cases, tremors, convulsions, loss of consciousness, coma, respiratory arrest, and death may occur. INHALATION Vapors may cause nose and throat irritation, anesthetic effects and central nervous system (CNS) depression. Inhalation may result in dizziness, drowsiness, headache, and other symptoms similar to those listed under "Ingestion". Inhalation of high concentrations can cause rapid CNS depression, cardiac arrhythmia, unconsciousness, came., and possibly death resulting from respiratory failure. Systemic effects to the liver, kidneys, central nervous system, an blood have been reported from large and/or repeated or prolonged exposures. WARNING: The burning of any hydrocarbon as a fuel in an area without adequate ventilation may result in hazardous levels of combustion products, including carbon monoxide, and inadequate oxygen levels, which may cause.. unconsciousness, suffocation, and death. CHRONIC EFFECTS/CARCINOGENICITY This product is not expected to be a cancer hazard under normal conditions of use. Similar products produced skin cancer and skin tumors in laboratory animals following repeated applications. The significance to human exposure has not been determined - see Section II, Toxicological Information. This product is similar to DIESEL Fuel. IARC classifies whole diesel exhaust as probably carcinogenic (Group 2A) and NIOSH regards it as a potential cause of occupational lung cancer (tumorigen) based on animal studies and limited evidence in humans. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE Irritation from skin exposure may- aggravate -existing dermatitis (skin) conditions. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES (Rev. 02/94) EYES In case of contact with eyes, immediately flush with clean, low-pressure water for at least 15 min. Hold eyelids open to ensure adequate flushing. Seek medical attention. Revision Date: 09/26/94 Page 2 of 8 [HESS] Material #2 FUEL OIL Safety Data Sheet 4. FIRST AID MBASORES - Continued SKIN Remove contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated areas thoroughly with soap and water or waterless hand cleanser. Obtain medical attention if irritation or redness develops. High pressure injections are serious medical emergencies - seek immediate medical attention. INGESTION DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING BECAUSE OF DANGER OF BREATHING LIQUID INTO LUNGS. Seek immediate medical attention. Rinse mouth with water. Administer 1 to 2 glasses of water or milk to drink. Never administer liquids to an unconscious person. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, lean victim forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Seek medical attention. Monitor far breathing difficulty. INHALATION Remove person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, ensure an open airway and administer CPR. If necessary, provide additional air or oxygen once breathing is restored if trained to do so. Seek medical attention immediately. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES (Rev. 09/94) FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES FLASH POINT: 100F PMCC (minimum) AUTCIGNITION: 495F 2S7C FLAMMABILITY CLASS: II LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT <%): 0.6 UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (%): 7.5 FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS OSHA and NFPA Class II COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID (see Section 14 for transportation classification). When mixed with air and exposed to an ignition source, flammable vapors can burn in the open or explode in confined spaces. Being heavier than air, vapors may travel long distances to an ignition source and flash back. Runoff to sewer may cause fire or explosion hazard. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA SMALL FIRES: Any extinguisher suitable for Class B fires C02, water spray, fire fighting foam, or Halon. dry chemical, LARGE FIRES: Water spray, fog or fire fighting foam. Water may not achieve extinguishment, but may be used to disperse vapors, control the magnitude of the fire, and/or to cool fire-exposed containers. FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Small fires m the incipient (beginning) stage may typically be extinguished using handheld portable fire extinguishers and other fire fighting equipment. Fire fighting activities that may result in potential exposure to high heat, smoke or toxic byproducts of combustion should require positive pressure-demand NIOSH/MSHA-approved self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full-facepiece and full protective firefighting clothing. Isolate area around container involved in fire. Cool tanks, shells, and containers exposed to fire and excessive heat with-water. For massive fires the use of unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles may be advantageous to further minimize personnel exposure. Major fires may require withdrawal, allowing the tank to burn. Large storage tank fires typically require specially trained personnel and equipment to extinguish the fire, often including the need for properly applied fire fighting foam. See Section 16 for NFPA 704 Hazard Rating. Revision Date: 09/26/94 Page 3 ' of 8 ii . u; BIRD 022686 I Material #2 FUEL OIL Safety Data Sha a t HESS ---- 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (Rev. 09/94) ACTIVATE YOUR FACILITY'S SPILL COittTINGENCY PLAN (e.g. SPCC, RCRA, OPA, or EMERGENCY plan) , if available. Evacuate nonessential personnel and remove or secure all ignition sources. Consider wind direction; stay upwind and uphill, if possible. Evaluate the direction of product travel, diking, sewers, etc. to confirm spill areas. Carefully contain and stop the source of the spill, if safe to do so. Protect bodies of water by diking, absorbents, or absorbent boom, if possible. Do not flush down sewer or drainage systems', unless the system is designed and permitted to handle such materials. The use of fire fighting foam may be useful in certain situations to reduce vapors. SMALL SPILLS: Take up with sand or other oil absorbing materials. Carefully shovel, scoop or sweep up into a waste container for reclaimation or disposal. Cleanup crews must be properly trained and must utilize proper protective equipment. LARGE SPILLS: Dike far ahead of the spill. Th6 proper use of water spray may effectively disperse product vapors or the liquid itself, preventing contact with ignition sources or areas/equipment that require protection as well as protect personnel attempting to stop leak. Consideration should be given to environmental clean-up and waste material generation when determining if the use of large volumes of water is appropriate for non-fire emergency situations. Cleanup crews must be properly trained and must utilize proper protective equipment. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE (Rev. 09/94) HANDLING PRECAUTIONS Handle as a combustible liquid. Kaep away from heat, sparks, and open flame! No smoking or open flame in storage, use or handling areas. Keep containers closed and clearly labeled.
