ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES :

General Response Procedure :  Ensure adequate ventilation. ELIMINATE all ignition sources. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Avoid generating dust. Avoid breathing dust and contact with eyes, skin and clothing.

Clean Up Procedures :  Collect material (sweep or vacuum up) and place in suitable, properly labelled containers for disposal. Avoid dispersal of dust in the air (i.e. clearing dusty surfaces with compressed air). Non-sparking tools should be used.

Containment: Stop leak if safe to do so – Prevent entry into waterways, drains or confined areas. Prevent dust cloud. Dust deposits should not be allowed to accumulate on surfaces, as these may form an explosive mixture if they are released into the atmosphere in sufficient concentration.
