IV. SPECIAL HANDLING AND WORKER PRECAUTIONS FOR STORAGE AND FIELD APPLICATION
1. Flammability: Non-flammable 2. Ventilation: Handle in a well ventilated space. Local exhaust is recommended if TLV's are exceeded. 3. Skin and eye contact; protective clothing; treatment in case of contact: Avoid eye and skin contact. In case of such contact, immediately flush with large amount of cool water for at least 15 minutes, and call a physician. Wear protective eye goggles, impermeable protective gloves, and protective clothing when handling the product. Wash contaminated protective equipment (including clothing, shoes, eye goggles, gloves, etc.) thoroughly in soap and water, rinse repeatedly in clean water and dry before reuse. Avoid ingestion, breathing dusts, mists, or fumes. In case of ingestion, induce vomiting, give water and call a physician. In case of inhalation, move the affected person to fresh air, and call a physician. 4.a. Maximum storage temperature: 140ºF 4.b. Minimum storage temperature: 50ºF 4.c. Optimum storage temperature range: > 50ºF to < 104ºF 4.d. Temperatures of phase separations and chemical changes:< 50ºF, > 104ºF

VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURES
1. Application Method: AQUACLEAN may be introduced with a pressure spray to cover the affected area, after the appropriate dilution or concentration is prepared. After application, agitate spill area with water using a solid stream flow. For manual cleaning with AQUACLEAN, follow instructions in the product data sheet provided by the manufacturer. 2. Concentration/Application Rate: For small spills, dilute 3 to 1 with water and apply as above. For large spills, prepare a 33% solution of AQUACLEAN and apply through a foam eductor at 6% setting with approximately 90 gallons per minute flow at the nozzle. For spills on shorelines and beaches, dilute AQUACLEAN 50% with fresh water and apply using a pressure spray to cover the entire contaminated area. Then rinse with fresh water. 3. Conditions for Use: Water temperature should be above 41ºF.
