SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
This product has not been evaluated for its ecotoxicity. However, the biodegradation of this product under aerobic conditions is expected to be very poor and there is no evidence to suggest they create ecological problems when released into the environment. Since this product is insoluble, it is believed to have minimal bioaccumulation and bioavailability characteristics.
SECTION 13: DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Method of Disposal : Dispose of in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Material may be sent to an approved landfill or licensed treatment, storage, and disposal facility.
