liquid as possible. Dike spills using absorbent or impervious materials
such as sand or clay for later disposal. Do not empty into drains.
SECTION VII. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling: Take precaution to avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Do not contaminate water,
food or feedstuffs, by storage, handling, or by disposal. Read and observe all precautions
