## OPTIONAL POLLunON PREVENTION INFORMATION To claim information in this section as confidential circleorbracketthe specific informationthat you claim as confidential. 

## In this section you may provide information not reported elsewhere in 

## this form regarding your efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with activities surrounding manufacturing, processing, use and disposal of the PMN substance. Please include new information pertinent to pollution prevention, including source reduction, recycling activities and safer processes orproducts available due to the new chemical substance. Source reduction includes the reduction in the amount or toxicity ofchemical wastes by technological modification, process and procedure modification, product reformulation, raw materials substitution, and/or inventory control. Recycling refers to the reclamation of useful chemical components from wastes that would otherwise be treated or released as air 

## emissions or water discharges, or land disposal. Descriptions ofpollution prevention, source reduction and recycling should emphasizepotential risk reduction subsequent to compliance with existing regulatory requirements and can beeither quantitative or qualitative. The EPA is interested in this information to assess overall net reductions in toxicity orenvironmental releases and exposures, not the shifting ofrisks to other environmental media ornon-environmental areas (e.g., occupational orconsumerexposure). In 

## addition, informationon therelative cost or performance characteristics of the PMN substance to potential alternatives may 

# be provided. All information provided in

# this section will be taken into consideration during the review of 

## this substance. See the revised Instructions Manual that includes a Pollution Prevention manual for guidance and examples. Describe the expected net benefits, such as (1) 

### an overall reduction in riskto human health orthe environment; a) 

### a reduction in the volume manufactured; (3) a reduction in the generation of waste materials through recycling, source reduction or

### other means; (4) a reduction in potential toxicity orhumanexposure and/orenvironmental release; (5) 

### anincreasein product**performan~,** 

### a decrease 

### in thecost ofproduction and/or improved operation efficiencyofthe newchemical substance in comparison to existing chemical substances used in similarapplications; or (6) the extent to which the newchemical substance may

### be a substitute for an 

## existing substance that poses a greater overall risk to human health or the**environm~t.**

Toxicological Results: This product has not undergone toxicological testing but similar material has been test. The material was tested at high experimental dose levels using pregnant rats to identify possible effects to the developing fetus. AltllOugh there were no statistically significant findings in this study, a very small number oftlle fetuses from this study bad the uncommon findings ofeither small or absent eyes. These findings were reported to the U.S. EPA under the substantial risk reporting requirements ofTSCA section 8(e).

### Section VITI Safe Handling. Storage. and 

### Spill Control Handling and Storage: When handling, avoid breathing mist or vapor. Avoid contact \\lith eyes, skin and clothing. Use adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after contact. 

### As standard practice, chemicals should be stored away from sources ofheat. Containers should be periodically inspected for leakage. Ground containers when transferring material to avoid static charge buildup and possible incendiary discharge. Spill Control: For small spills, absorb the material with inert absorbent, bag and dispose in accordance with federal, state and local ordinances. For large spills, implement standard cleanup procedures. Prevent run-offto sewers, and bodies ofwater. Ifspill is in a public area, notifY authorities and keep public away.

### has found that this compound may reasonably be anticipated to be a human carcinogen. Toxicological Results: This product has not undergone toxicological testing but similar material has been test. The material 

## was tested at high experimental dose levels using pregnant rats to identify possible effects to tile developing fetus. Although there were no statistically significant findings in this study, a very small number ofthe fetuses from this study had the uncommon findings ofeither small or absent eyes. These findings were reported to tile U.S. EPA under the substantial risk reporting requirements ofTSCA section See). These findings seen only at an experimental dose level tllat is hundreds or thousands oftimes higher than potential human exposures, are ofquestionable relevance to human health assessment.
