' Subject: (Aildellnea for Completing the Material Safety Data Sheet Gentlemen: Ouldellnea for completing the Department of Labor Material Safety Data Sheet (USDS), form LSB-OOS-h, are enclosed. The use of the MSDS, which was originated under the Longshorlng and Maritime Safety Act, baa increased tremendously, and continued Increases of use will occur under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. We have bad numerous requests for assistance in completing the USDS, and aa a result, have written guidelines which are general, but provide specific information relating to lead in Sections H--Hazardous Ingredients, and V--Health Hazards. The statement referring to the "Effects of Over* exposure* for lead vas based on responses from the members of the Fhrlrooaental Health Committee of the LXA and the specific wording is recommended for all exposures involving lead. The guidelines should provide sufficient information to comply with the various requirements for health and safety information on the hazardous properties of products. Sincerely, Q Donald P. Lynam Assistant Manager, Environmental Health cb: Enc. n A copy of a Material Safety Data Sheet (fora LSB-00S-4) la attached. The X fora was originated under the Longshoremen's and Harbor Worker*a Compensation Act, J but haa been extended a* a Military Standard (MIL-STD 1341) and la retired by 3 the Department of Dafaaae on all contract blda. It la alao to be Included In all J Invitations for Bid laaued by CSX and all noo-dafeaae agencies. The Department i of Labor, under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, will moat likely ,>s In the future require thla fore, in either the prerent or nodifled fore. The publication, "Material Safety Data Sheet, Requirements for Reporting Hazardoua Materlala, Safety and Health Regulation*, Tor Ship Repairing, Ship building and Ship Breaking,** la available froa the Department of Labor and o provider Information to help In completing the MSDS. The Department of Labor ;! Howe the uac of an essentially almllar form aa a replacement for the ICDS. An caaentlally almllar form la Interpreted aa one In which Section II la modified to Indicate only the product or group of product* which It la intended to cover. t*P The remaining *action* of the form auat Hat the Iteaa of Information In the sequence K' ahovn on Font OOS-4 but may he expanded or decreaaed aa long aa all required headlnga ;; s are retained. An caaentlally almllar form eiat be approved by the Department of Labor before it can be need. The auggeated guldellnea for filling cut the )6DS which follow Include In Section V Health Haaarda, the recommended wording for effects of overexposure for lead. This suggested wording vaa baaed on responses from the meters of the Environmental Haa1th Camlttee of the Lead Industries Association. This informa tion should ba adaquate to comply with the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, and provide for Information on lead exposure to those meabere who presently use the MSDS or are required to provide Information on the hazardou* propertlaa of their products.

Ingredients of a hazardous nature shall be noted by chemical name In one of the three division* of Section II, Vis, Paints, Preservatives, and Solvents; Alloys and Metallic Coatings (such as plating, cladding, and metallizing); and Hazardous Mixture* of Other Liquid*, Solids, or Rases (this is tba category for lead). A Hazardous Material 1* defined a* a material idilch has on* or more of th* following characteristics: 1 - Flashpoint below 140F 2 - Threshold Limit Value (TLV) below 500 p.p.m. for gsae* and vapors, below 15 mg/M3 for fumes, and 25 KPPCF for dusts. 3 - A single doss orsl LDy) below 500 */Kg.
