Actmg Fire Marshal Tomaso contacted me and asked if I would take my crew to the Gap Store in the mall to investigate an odar being generated from the unoccupied business next door to the Gap. Upon our arrival, I was met by a representative from the construction company and the mall management. They informed me of the use of a sealer on the floor in the space next door to the Gap that was generating a very strong odar in the businesses. They had closed the store prior to anyone complaining of getting ill. We found the Gap store closed. We could smell the odar in the area of the construction site, but could not smell it in the Gap. We used our 4 gas detector to perform our air sampling. Our readings were all normal limits, and the LEL reading was "0". We took readings in the Gap and in the construction site, and got the same reading. The personnel on site had already set up several LARGE fans to air out the structure. We did not use our PPV fan because of the 02 contamination. With NO detectable odar, and readings of "0" on our monitor, we chose to close the incident and open the business, at the discretion of the store manager. One unit was assigned to this incident. Three personnel responded. We arrived on scene at 1459 hours and cleared at 1517 hours. The incident occurred at 1048 Southcenter Mall, Tukwila in District 004. The general description of this property is general retail. The primary task(s) performed at the scene by responding personnel was investigation.

HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling Containers of this material May be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied containers retain product reaiduea (vapor. liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in the data sheet must De observed. All five -gallon pains and larger metal containers, including tans cars and tank trucks, should be grounded and/or bonded when material is trensrerred. Hydrocarbon solvents are basically non-conductors of electricity and can become electrostatically charged during mixing, filtering or pumping at high flow rates. If this charge reaches a sufficiently high level, sparks can fora that may ignite the vapors of flammable liquids. Warning. Sudden release of hot organic chemical vapors or mists from process equipment operating at elevated temperature and pressure, or sudden ingress of air into vacuum equipment, may result in ignitions without the presence of obvious ignition sources. Published "autoignition" or •ignition" temperature values cannot be treated as safe operating temperatures in chenieAl processes without analysis of the actual process conditions. Any use of this product in elevated temperature processes should be thoroughly evaluated to establish and maintain safe operating conditions. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Nye Protection Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are advised; however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety giasses. Consult your safety representative. Skin Protection wear resistant gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier)., To prevent repeated or prolonged Skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots.. Respiratory Protections If workplace exposure limit(a) of product or any component is exceeded (see exposure guidelines), a PIOSH/HSHA approved air supplied respirator is advised in absence or proper environmental control. OSHA regulations also permit other NIOSH/NSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specified conditions (set your industrial hygienist). Engineering or administrative controls should be implemented to reduce exposure. Engineering Controls Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(s).

Developmental Information This material (or a component) has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animal studies. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain. Cancer Information This material is not expected to cause cancer in humans since it did not cause cancer in laboratory animals. Ethylbenzene has been shown to cause cancer in laboratory animals. The relevance of this finding to humans is uncertain. IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) has classified ethyibenzene as a possible human carcinogen. Other Health Effects No data Primary Route(s) of Entry Inhalation, Skin absorption, Skin contact, Eye contact, Ingestion. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes gently with water while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms persist or there is any visual difficulty, seek medical attention. Skin Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with large amounts of. water. If skin is damaged, seek immediate medical attention. If skin is not damaged and symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse. Swallowing Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious. do not give anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a physician, medical facility, or poison control center for advice about whether to induce vomiting. If possible, do not leave individual unattended. Inhalation If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention; keep person warm and quiet. If person is not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult. administer oxygen. )Iota to Physicians •Inhalation of high concentrations of this material, as could occur in enclosed spaces or during deliberate abuse, may be associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac arrnythmias in persons exposed to this material. This material is an aspiration hazard. Potential danger from aspiration must be weighed against possible oral toxicity (See Section 3 - Swallowing) when deciding whether to induce vomiting. Preexisting disorders of the following organs (or organ systems) may be aggravated by ex oaure to this material: skin, lung (for example, asthma -like conditions), kidney, auditory system. Individuals with preexisting heart disorders may be more susceptible to arrhythmias (irregular( heartbeats) if exposed to high concentrations of this ons Hued on neat page r Incident History for: #TF01003156 CN: Received Entered Dispatched Enroute Onscene Closed 10/01/01 10/01/01 10/01/01 10/01/01 10/01/01 10/01/01 14:58:58 BY FD21 14:58:58 BY FD21 14:59:03 BY FD21 14:59:03 14:59:03 15:17:09 $TF01003 286 /VC5731 /VC5731 /VC5731 Initial Type: ODORIN Initial Alarm Level: 1 Final Type: ODORIN (ODOR INVESTIGATION INDOORS (2A) Pri: 2 Dispo: Police TP600 Fire TF5121 Group: T9 Beat: Police Rms: Fire Rms: Medic Rms: Loc: 1048 SOUTHCENTER MALL .TUK -- GAP.
