Control the Spill — Immediately after the spill has occurred steps must be <br />taken to control the flow of spilling or leaking pesticide. All applicators must <br />have access to a spill kit and do everything possible to safely stop the leak or <br />spill at once. For example, a tipped container may need to be righted, a <br />leaking container may need to be placed inside a larger container, or leaking <br />equipment may need to be shut down until it can be repaired. When <br />attempting to control the flow of the chemical, do not expose yourself <br />unnecessarily. Always carry protective equipment and clothing when <br />transporting pesticides. Use this equipment when pesticide emergencies occur. <br />2. Contain the Spill — Use the spill kit materials to prevent the spill form flowing <br />into a larger area by placing absorbent material around the spill. <br />3. Clean the spill up — refer to safety data sheet (SDS) and contact your chemical <br />retailer or manufacturer for cleanup of specific chemicals. <br />Anglo Gold Mine Weed Management Plan 7 <br />
