TUKWILA FIRE DEPARTMENT INCIDENT REPORT NARRATIVE
Page 1 Date: 06/06/99 Incident: 99-001814-000
E-51, E-52 and HM 52 Responded to a liquid spill at 803 S.C. Mall. The
product spilled was a iquid coating for eyeglass lenses. The amount of
the spilled product was around a liter. The business had a spill
control plan and had placed corn cob granuals over the spill before
evacuating. The cob had soaked up most of the product. Our entry was
bunker gear with scba. We added some more cob to the spill and swept it
up and sealed it in a 5 gallon bucket. The business was returned to the
employee group.

Potential Health Effects
• INHALATION: Harmful if inhaled. May effect the brain or nervous system
causing dizziness, headache or nausea. Can irrr'tMe the nose and throat. May
cause an allergic respiratory reaction similar to an asthma attack. Aerosols can
be kritating to the respiratory passages. INGESTION: Harmful if swallowed.
11-11-1997 10:1SAM FROM LENS TECHNOLOGY 310 802 sem P.3;
SKIN CONTACT: Causes sidn irritation. EYE CONTACT: Causes Eye
Irritation. The kidney, Mier and blood may be targeted by components of LTI-HT-
825.
Fire and Explosion
LTi -HT -825 is a flammable liquid with a flash point of 91 deg. F SETA dosed
cup. Both the LEL and UEL have not been determined. Products of combustion
include carbon dioxide and carbon mono:dde, nitrogen oxides, acrid fumes and
volatile organic fractions. The exact composition of the combustion by-products
will depend on the conditions of combustion. In a fire situation, dosed
containers may rupture violently when exposed to heat Toxic and/or irrttatiing
vapors may be released during a spill. Combustion by.products maybe
hazardous.
(See Reactivity Section}
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure
Symptoms or signs of potential overexposure to LTI-HT-825 or its components
may include headache, lethargy, skin rashes; hires, respiratory irritation
resulting in coughing or wheezing, disoriented or drunkenness behavior, nausea,
vomiting, eye reddening, conjunctivitis, itching, burning or other ktltation of the
skin and burning or other irritation of the eye.
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately wash exposed sldn with plenty of soap and water
for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice if a rash or irritation persists. Wash
doting before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes and other leather goods or
apparel.
Inhalation:
If affected by inhalation of vapor or spray mist, remove to fresh air. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give CPR. Get medical mention
immediately.
If swalowsd, seek medical advice immediately.

5: Fie fighting Mures:
Use dry powder, CO2. foam or water fog to extkrguish fees involving this product.
Water and/or water fog may cause frothing and should be applied carefully.
SOBA and Ful Body protection must be worn. Use water only to cod containers
exposed tette heat of a fie. Contain water run-off from entering drains, streams
and lakes. Disperse vapors using a fog pattern. Keep upwind of fine or vapor
clouds.
6: Accidental Release Measures
SMALL SPILLS (a pint or titre)
Cover with absorbent material (Expanded vermiculite or kitty titer). When liquid
is Bully absorbed, sweep into a plastic bag.
LARGE SPILLS
Prevent build-up of vapors, by covering with absorbent material. Pay particular
attention to confined areas or storm drains. TURN OFF POWER AT A REMOTE
SWITCH PANEL. remember that tumirg equipment ON or OFF will muse an
arc for possible ignition of vapor. Use spark -proof tools and conductive shoes to
avoid sparking hazards. Dispose of In accordance with all applicable
regulations.
7: Handling and Stoma*
LTI-HT-825 is flammable and should be stored away from potential ignition
sources. Keep away from heat, sparks and (tame. Vapors may ignite
explosivNy vapors may spread over long dunces. Close container ager each
use. Drums should be grounded while dispensing. Do not get in eyes, on skin
or on clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation.
8: Exposure Preteetion
In that each work area vanes, it is important that an Industrial Hygiene review be
made of the process to establish exposure levels. Appropriate engineering
controls should be designed and installed to present navels from exceeding the
established TLV's. When engineering controls can not be put in place, ak
purifying respiratory are required for exposures up to 10 times the TLV and
positive pressure supplied for sir respirators for exposure above 10 tines the
TLV. Ideally ventilation duds must be tight so odors of the coating are not
objectionable
P. A
1 r-11-1997 10: 19AM FROM LENS TECHNOLOGY 310 802 9900 P.
Due to the potential harmful characteristics of LTi -HT -825 cane needs to be
taken to prevent skin exposure. Suitable emergency showerieuies or other
sufficient water supply is required to be ave able for emergency use. Eye
protection including safety glasses and /or face shields should be worm when
ever the potential exists that LTi -HT -825 could attack the eye. This includes
while dispensing or spraying if applicable. Suitable emergency eye wash
facilities or other sufficient water supply is required 10 be available for emergency
use. Good personal hygiene prate should be followed to prevent accidental
consumption. This includes ensuring personnel wash after handling LTi-HT-
825and prior to smoking, eating or consuming tobacco items like chewing
tobacco or applying cosmetics.
