Extractions: Other Numbers A Guide to the Regulations When a chemical spill or release occurs in Colorado, there are a number of reporting and notification requirements that must be followed by the agency or individual responsible for the spill. These requirements tend to be confusing, and regulations often overlap. This brochure briefly explains the major requirements. Contents: General For all hazardous substance incidents, the local emergency response agencies must be notified. The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) Title III, a federal law with which facilities must comply in Colorado, requires reporting releases from fixed facilities. Fixed facilities must immediately report any release that exceeds the reportable quantity for that specific chemical to the agencies listed below. Refer to the SARA Title III List of Lists, available from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), for the reportable quantity. The party that owns the spilled material must immediately notify the following agencies or organizations: 1. National Response Center (NRC);
Using Activated Charcoal To Inactivate Agricultural Chemical Spills AG-442

Extractions: Crop Science Extension Specialist Published by: North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service Publication Number: AG-442 Last Electronic Revision: March 1996 (JWM) Farmers as well as the general public are concerned about the effects of pesticides on the environment. At the sarne time, the agricultural community realizes that pesticides are uital for consistent profitableproductionofreliable, safe, high-quality agricultural commodities. Large quantities of pesticides are handled by farmers and farm workers; thus pesticide accidents may occur, euen when the most stringent safety guidelines are followed. If a pesticide spill occurs, proper corrective measures can help prevent environmental contamination of soil and water resources. If a pesticide is spilled accidently, if the wrong pesticide is applied, or if a pesticide is applied at an excessive rate, the best solution is to apply a material that will adsorb or inactivate the pesticide. Once the pesticide has been adsorbed, it is biologically inactive and cannot cause environmental contamination by running off in surface waters or leaching into groundwater. Activated charcoal (activated carbon) is the universal adsorbing material for most pesticides. Powdered activated charcoal is made up of very small carbon particles that have a high affinity for organic chemicals such as pesticides. Activated charcoal has a large surface area to which organic molecules can bind. When it is applied to pesticide-contaminated soil, the pesticide molecules are attracted to the charcoal particles and bind to them when they come into contact.

Extractions: SPILLS Chemical Spills Safety Services provides advice on the proper clean-up techniques and personal protective equipment which may be required. Some spills may be too large or too dangerous for laboratory personnel, in which case Safety Services will arrange to help with the spill clean up. Do not call Caretaking to clean up a chemical spill, their personnel are not properly trained to clean up laboratory chemical spills. Do not attempt to clean-up a chemical spill if you are unsure of the danger, do not have specific spill clean-up training, do not have proper equipment, or if highly toxic vapours or dusts are present. Neutralizers and absorbents for the chemicals in the laboratory must be present. In the event of a chemical spill: Warn personnel in the laboratory. If a volatile, flammable, or highly toxic material is spilled, have everybody extinguish flames and turn off spark-generating equipment and evacuate the laboratory immediately. If clothing is contaminated, remove it and use the emergency shower to rinse the affected areas. If contaminates are in your eyes rinse for at least 15 minutes at an eyewash station.

Mobile Raman Targets Chemical Spills - February, 2001
UPTON, NY A few years from now, emergency personnel responding to a chemical spill at a train wreck may be able to breathe a little easier.
http://www.photonics.com/spectra/tech/XQ/ASP/techid.1015/QX/read.htm

Extractions: Researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a mobile Raman spectroscopy system to remotely assess unknown chemical spills in emergency situations. The system uses 266-nm Raman lidar to target samples more than 1700 feet away. The Mobile Raman Lidar Van arose from research into Raman spectroscopy for lidar, explained Arthur J. Sedlacek III, optical remote sensing and spectroscopy group leader in the laboratory's environmental sciences department. "We slowly became aware of the need of the first-responder community to be able to identify unknown chemical spills prior to handling," he said. Currently, Hazmat personnel must bring a sensor close to a spill or collect a sample for testing.

Extractions: Introduction: No matter what precautions are taken, accidental chemical spills will occur in a science laboratory. Be a responsible science teacher and make sure proper safety equipment is available to contain and control a spill and understand how to use the safety equipment. Equally as important as knowing how to clean up spills is understanding how to prevent both minor and major chemical spills. Experiments, laboratories, and purchasing procedures should be designed to minimize the possibility of chemical spills. Experiments should use the minimal amount of chemicals whenever possible. The following guidelines will reduce the risk of chemical spills. Purchase of Chemicals: Purchase, store, and dispense chemicals from the smallest bottle possible. For example, do not order or dispense from a 500-mL bottle if each student only needs 1 mL. Purchase, store, and dispense chemicals in unbreakable plastic or PVC-coated glass bottles. Elemental mercury and volatile toxic chemicals must never be stored in uncoated glass bottles. Purchase all concentrated acids in PVC-coated glass bottles. Purchase and store highly toxic or reactive materials in a secondary containment device, such as a Chem-Saf

Extractions: Chemical Spills Hazardous material spills can seriously threaten the lives of anyone within the spill area. If local officials advise you to "shelter-in-place," you must remain inside your home or office and take the following steps to maximize your protection: Close and lock all outside doors and windows. Turn off all fans, heating and air-conditioning systems (Examples: kitchen, bathroom and dryer vents). Close the fireplace damper. Get your disaster supply kit and make sure the radio is working. Go to an interior room that is above ground level, preferably, one without windows. An above ground location is best because some chemicals are heavier than air and may seep into basements, even if the windows are closed. Seal all cracks around the door and any vents into the room. Continue to monitor your radio or television until you are told it is safe or advised to evacuate. Local officials may later call for the evacuation of specific areas that are at greatest risk in your community. Responders will advise when it's safe to leave the premises. If you suspect contamination, take shallow breaths through a cloth or towel. If medical help is not immediately available, shower, place exposed clothing in a tightly sealed container and wait for emergency assistance. REMEMBER TO HAVE SOMONE CALL 911.
