Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: ASPHALT FUMES CAN CAUSE
    NOSE, THROAT, MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITATION, NAUSEA, HEADACHE, OR
    DIZZINESS. SKIN: HOT PRODUCT MAY CAUSE THERMAL BURNS. EYES: SEVERE
    IRRITATION, REDNESS, TEARING, & BL URRED VISION. INGESTION:
    MOUTH/THROAT/GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IRRITATION & UPSET W/POSSIBLE
    NAUSEA, VOMITING, & DIARRHEA.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:SEE INGREDIENTS
Effects of Overexposure:SKIN: COLD PRODUCT MAY RESULT IN DRYNESS &
    IRRITATION. ASPHALT FUMES CAN INCREASE SENSITIVITY TO SUN, & CAUSE
    DISCOLORATION. DERMATITIS.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:CHRONIC SKIN OR RESPIRATORY
    DISORDERS

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. GIVE OXYGEN/CPR. SKIN: HOT
    MATERIAL-DRENCH/IMMERSE IN WATER. APPLY ICED WATER/ICE PACKS. DON'T
    USE ICE WATER/COLD PACKS IF BURN COVERS >10% OF BODY. MEDICAL
    PERSONNEL  CAN SOFTEN/REMOVE COOLED ASPHALT W/PETROLEUM JELLY. COLD
    MATERIAL-CLEAN W/WATERLESS HAND CLEANER/SOAP/WATER. EYE: FLUSH
    W/WATER. INGESTION: DON'T INDUCE VOMITING. OBTAIN MEDICAL
    ATTENTION.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Flash Point Method:COC
Flash Point:>400F ASPHALT
Extinguishing Media:FOAM, CO2, DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures:TREAT AS HYDROCARBON FIRE. WATER MAY BE USED
    TO COOL CONTAINERS IN FIRE EXPOSED AREA. USE SELF-CONTAINED
    BREATHING APPARATUS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:HOT ASPHALT MAY IGNITE FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
    ON CONTACT. DON'T USE WATER ON ASPHALT FIRE, IT MAY CAUSE VIOLENT
    ERUPTION & SPREADING OF HOT ASPHALT.

==================  Accidental Release Measures  ==================

Spill Release Procedures:DIKE STORAGE TANKS TO PREVENT MATERIAL FROM
    ENTERING SEWERS OR WATERWAYS. ABSORB W/INERT MATERIALS SUCH AS
    SAND/VERMICULITE. DISPOSE OF AS SOLID REGULATED WASTE.

======================	Handling and Storage  ======================

Handling and Storage Precautions:DON'T ALLOW HOT, MOLTEN ASPHALT TO
    CONTACT WATER AS THIS MAY CAUSE VIOLENT ERUPTIONS & SPREADING OF
    HOT ASPHALT. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
Other Precautions:AVOID CONTACT W/SKIN/EYES/CLOTHING. KETTLES SHOULD BE
    OPERATED AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE TEMPERATURE THAT ALLOWS PROPER
    APPLICATION. KETTLES SHOULD HAVE TIGHT-FITTING LIDS & BE USED IN
    WELL VENTILATED AR EAS. USE CAUTION AROUND BULK CONTAINER.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:IF TLV EXCEEDED, A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED AIR
    PURIFYING DUST/MIST/FUMES RESPIRATOR, SUPPLIED AIR RESPIRATORS OR
    SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. HYDROGEN SULFIDE, EXTREMELY
    FLAMMABLE, HIGHLY TOXIC GAS , MAYBE RELEASED FROM HEATED ASPHALT.
Ventilation:OUTDOOR USE: ADEQUATE & AVOID FUMES BY WORKING UPWIND.
    INDOOR USE: ADEQUATE BUILDING VENTILATION & LOCAL EXHAUST.
Protective Gloves:LEATHER OR LINED NEOPRENE COATING
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL SAFETY GLASSES/FACE SHIELD
Other Protective Equipment:LONG SLEEVED SHIRT & LONG PAINTS,
    SUNSCREENS, SAFETY SHOWERS, EYE WASH STATIONS
Work Hygienic Practices:REMOVE/LAUNDER CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE
    REUSE. WASH HANDS & ARMS FREQUENTLY. SHOWER AFTER EXPOSURE.
Supplemental Safety and Health
ASPHALT DOES CONTAIN A SMALL AMOUNT OF POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS
    WHICH HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE CANCER & RESPIRATORY DAMAGE IN
    ANIMALS. HYDROGEN SULFIDE IS A PRODUCT CONTAMINANT. SENSE OF SMELL 
    RAPIDLY BECOMES INSENSITIVE TO HYDROGEN SULFIDE, ITS ODOR CAN'T BE
    RELIED AS AN INDICATOR OF ITS CONCENTRATION.
