Hazardous Material Handling and Proper Personal Protective Equipment NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Considerations when Handling Hazardous Materials • Use common sense! • Think before you act • Follow good housekeeping procedures – Clean-up after yourself • Always wear the proper PPE • Know the hazards of the materials you are working with! • Create and use chemical specific SOP’s (Safe Operating Procedures) NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Material Handling and Proper PPE Controlling Hazards 1. Engineering Controls • Eliminate the hazard from the workplace 2. Administrative Controls • Limit worker contact with the hazard • Training/Procedures, Good Housekeeping 3. PPE • LAST RESORT NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

PPE = Last Resort • When PPE is the primary control measure, the hazard is still present in the environment • Failure of the PPE or improper usage can expose the worker to the full effect of the hazards present in the environment NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Types of PPE • • Head Protection Eye/Face Protection Hearing Protection Foot Protection Respiratory Protection Hand Arm Protection Electrical Protective Devices Special Work Clothing NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Considerations for PPE Selection: • The types of hazards you will be in contact with – Physical Hazards – Chemical Hazards • The specific chemicals you will be in contact with • The concentration of these chemicals • The length of time the PPE is to be worn • The durability of the PPE NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

PPE continued • PPE Limitations – – – Degradation Permeation/Breakthrough Penetration Tears/Rips Location • PPE Failure – Knowing how to recognize PPE failure is crucial since PPE is the last line of protection between you and the chemical – Limit contact time with the chemical/hazard and inspect and change PPE frequently NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Satellite Accumulation Procedures NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Satellite Accumulation • “A generator may accumulate as much as 55 gallons of hazardous waste…in containers at or near any point of generation…which is under the control of the operator…” • Up to 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste (P-coded) can be collected in a satellite accumulation area • Your research labs, student labs or other rooms where materials are collected and accumulated are considered to be Satellite Accumulation Areas NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Satellite Accumulation • Material name must be on label – NO CHEMICAL FORMULAS OR ABBREVIATIONS!!! • The container must have the words “hazardous waste” • Containers must remain closed when not adding waste • Must be leak-proof and in good condition • Containers must be compatible with contents – No corrosive materials in metal containers • Store liquid wastes in secondary containers – Must be able to hold 110% of the largest containers volume • Containers must be moved to storage location within 3 days after NORTH AMERICA being filled NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Accumulation Start Date There are two (2) Regulations to follow: 1. Material can not be stored / accumulated in satellite accumulation area for more than one year. 2. Material can not be stored for more than 90 days in 90 -Day Storage Area. So, please put the date that you start accumulating material on the Hazardous Waste Tag.

Example of Inadequate Labeling NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Container Management • Attach label BEFORE adding waste • Container must be closed when not adding waste – Lids must be on – no funnels • Containers should be kept in their designated areas • Keep the outsides of containers free of waste • Do not use the top of the container as a storage shelf • Free access to containers must be maintained at all times! • Segregate Chemicals according to compatibility NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY CHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY IN STORAGE Keep stored incompatible chemicals apart from each other. Keep incompatible chemicals apart by cabinet, drawer, shelving unit or shelf. For liquid and high hazard chemicals, secondary containers are effective tools to prevent reactions between incompatible chemicals. When storing reactive chemicals, secondary containment can prevent degradation and reactions that occur during storage. It is best to use secondary containers made of materials that are non-reactive (i. e. , polyethylene, polypropylene). Refer to Marquette’s Guidelines for Preventing Chemical Incompatibility Hazards. Hazard Storage Class Storage Type Examples Corrosives Cabinet Conc. Hydrochloric Acid (37%), Phosphoric Acid Less than concentrated: Sulfuric Acid, Nitric Acid Organic Acids Corrosives Cabinet Dichloroacetic Acid, EDTA (ethylenedinitrilo tetraacetic acid), Thimerosal Bases Corrosives Cabinet Ammonium Hydroxide, Calcium Oxide, Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Hydroxide Oxidizing / Special Handling Inorganic Acids Corrosives Cabinet Bromine, Hydrofluoric Acid Cabinet labeled ‘Oxidizing / Special Handling Inorganic Acids’ Separate secondary containment for each (& label) Concentrated: Nitric Acid (70%) , Perchloric Acid (60%), Sulfuric Acid (96%) Oxidizers General Storage Cabinet labeled ‘Oxidizers’ Sodium Hypochlorite. The following are generally considered oxidizing substances: Peroxides, Perchlorates, Chlorates, Nitrites and less than concentrated Perchloric Acid. Toxics Designated Storage Cabinet Chloroform, Ethidium Bromide, Lead, Mercury Compounds, Potassium Cyanide, Phenol Flammables Flammable Storage Cabinet Only keep flammables in a flammable cabinet Acetone, Acetic Acid, Benzene, Ethyl Ether, Formaldehyde, Heptane, Hexane, Methanol, Pentane, Picric Acid, Toluene, Xylene General Storage Cabinet Double check NFPA Ratings to ensure general storage is appropriate Inorganic Acids Do not store acids and bases in same cabinet NONE Do not store acids and bases in same cabinet Cabinet labeled ‘Toxics’ , use secondary containment If there is an asterisk with the hazard storage class number (6*), the chemical is considered to be a particularly hazardous substance by Marquette University. A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is required for all particularly hazardous substances.

Managing A Spill What type and size of spills am I capable of managing? You should only be cleaning up small spills (less than 1 gallon) of known materials that you work with on a regular basis after you have had attended a hands-on training session given by the EHS department. Small spill clean-up kits are located in the 90 -day storage area and in “all” laboratories. Notify the Public Safety Department (x 8 -1911) for larger spills, or spills containing reactive or highly toxic materials. Public Safety will notify the proper authorities. NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Spill Kits These spill kits contain everything you need to properly manage a small spill in your labs. These are available for $48 each. Please contact Dennis Daye to place an order and purchase. NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Managing A Spill… • In the event of a chemical spill, first decide if you are trained, knowledgeable and equipped to handle the incident. • Prepare a plan of action (e. g. waiting for help, attend to injured, shutting off the valve, turn off ignition sources in presence of flammables if safe to do so) • Immediately evacuate the lab and notify Public Safety if there is a possibility of an acute respiratory hazard present or if you need assistance to clean up the spill. – Never proceed to clean up a spill if you do not know the hazards associated with the chemical or if you are unsure of how to clean up the spill. • If anyone is injured or contaminated, immediately notify Public Safety and begin decontamination measures or first aid, if trained. • Make sure to wear the proper PPE. – Apron, Gloves, Goggles, etc. NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Managing A Spill… Contain the spill (Stopping the source and stopping the spread) • stopping the source includes: – – Closing a valve; Shutting down a pump to stop flow; Putting “bandage” around a leaking hose; Positioning of leaking container. • stopping the spread includes: – Building a barrier around the spill; – Make a flow channel; – Use of absorbent or spill pads; NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Managing A Spill… • Absorbent should be distributed over the entire spill area, working from the outside, circling to the inside. – This stops the spread of the spilled chemical. • When spilled materials have been absorbed, use brush and scoop to place materials in an appropriate container (bag is provided in spill kits). – Dispose of any contaminated PPE used during cleanup. • Complete hazardous waste sticker, identifying the material as Spill Debris involving XYZ Chemical, and affix onto the container. Arrange for pick-up by EH&S Dept. as soon as possible. NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

Flammable Liquids • When managing a spill of a flammable liquid… – Turn off all sources of ignition – Lay the chemical spill pads over the spill • Pads are designed to suppress flammable vapors – Allow pads to completely absorb the liquid – Place the pads in plastic disposal bag – Wipe up any remaining liquid with paper towel – Dispose of the paper towel in plastic bag – Seal bag and attach a completed hazardous waste sticker NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

After the spill… • Remember that absorbed materials have the same properties and hazards as the original spilled materials. • Safely dispose all disposable coveralls, gloves and respirators. • Decontaminate all non-disposable items (brooms, shovels, thongs, protective clothing) using a mild detergent and water. • Arrange for pick up by EH&S Dept. as soon as possible. NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

After the spill… • Review what happened to prevent reoccurrence. • No matter how small the spill, keep a record of what happened. • Make sure that supplies (e. g. first aid, spill control kit) are replaced immediately. (Contact EH&S) ONLY HANDLE SPILLS OF A GALLON OR LESS OF A KNOWN MATERIAL. FOR LARGE SPILLS OR REACTIVE MATERIALS CONTACT PUBLIC SAFETY (x 8 -1911). NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

What to do when an emergency occurs… • TAKE CARE OF THE SAFETY OF YOURSELF AND OTHERS! • Activate the building’s fire alarm system. • If you have bodily contact with material: – immediately remove any contaminated clothing – flush the area with copious amounts of water • Call Public Safety at 288 -1911 – – Identify yourself and why you are calling the exact location and nature of the emergency any injuries of symptoms involved all hazardous materials involved (if known) NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

What to do when an emergency occurs… • Evacuate building to a safe distance (at least 100 feet) • leave clear access for emergency personnel • Keep all persons exposed in the same area. They should not leave until they are cleared by proper authorities. • If you have time to do so safely – – Close, but do not lock, doors behind you to isolate the area Turn off, unplug, or remove potential sources of ignition Contain the spill material with berms or other means Post a sign to warn others not to enter the area YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS SHOULD BE YOUR TOP PRIORITY! NORTH AMERICA www. Veolia. ES. com TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www. Veolia. ES. com

This is a general awareness training. You are not trained as an emergency responder and should not attempt to manage emergencies. Emergency agencies such as the Fire Department, Police Department and Haz Mat Response Teams will be responsible for situations other than easily contained spills or incidental situations.
