Non-Hazardous: A non-hazardous blend of Ureaform, Ammonium Phosphates, Calcium

Phosphates, Potassium Sulfate, Calcium Sulfate, Magnesium Oxide, Magnesium Sulfate, Sodium

Borate, Copper Sulfate, Ferrous Sulfate, Iron Sucrate, Manganese Sulfate, Zinc Sulfate;

Proprietary Blend of Humus, Plant and Fish Extracts, Organics, and Mycorrhizae; and inert non-

hazardous slow-release binding agents.



All exposure limits are for airborne 8-hour time-weighted averages and apply only to occupational

exposures. Tablet compaction of above blend helps reduce airborne exposures. The ACGIH

Threshold Limit Values for nuisance (inert) dusts containing <1% crystalline silica and no asbestos

are: 10mg/m3 total, and 5mg/m3 respirable.

SECTION 3. FIRST AID PROCEDURES

Eyes:

If in eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes holding eyelids open. Get medical attention.

Ingestion:

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. Have conscious person

drink 1 to 2 glasses of water, then induce repeated vomiting until vomit is clear. Call physician.

Skin:

Wash with plenty of soap and water.

Inhalation:

Remove to fresh air. Treat symptomatically.



SECTION 4. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION

Summary of Risks:

Prolonged or repeated direct contact with fertilizer may irritate eyes and skin. Inhalation of dust

may irritate nose, throat, and lungs.



Medical Conditions which May:

Be aggravated by contact: Skin abrasions and sores.

Target Organs: Skin, eyes, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, and central nervous system.

Primary Entry Route(s): Ingestion, Inhalation.

Acute Effect(s): Prolonged skin contact with product may cause mild irritation.



Ingredients Listed as a Carcinogen:

IARC Monographs: No

NTP:                 No

OSHA:                No



SECTION 5. PERSONAL PROTECTION AND PRECAUTIONS

Goggles:

None required for routine use of fertilizer.

Gloves:

None required for normal use. If prolonged or repeated use irritates skin, use neoprene or PVC

gloves.

Respirator:

If airborne dust levels are high or product does not remain intact, use a combination of engineering

controls (i.e. ventilation) and personal protection (i.e. NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator for dusts,

mists, fumes) to reduce exposures to acceptable levels.

Ventilation:

Ventilation and personal protection are recommended whenever dust levels are high or product

does not remain intact.



Workplace Considerations:

Safety Stations: Running water should be available in case material gets in eyes.

Other: Ingredients with occupational exposure limits comprise a small percentage of the total

product. For this reason, it is not expected that these limits will be exceeded unless the nuisance

dust standards are exceeded.

Conditions to Avoid:

Extreme heat. Contact with strong alkalies, oxidizers, and reducing agents. Contact with fuels and

other petro-organic or combustible materials. Active metals such as aluminum and magnesium.



Hazardous Decomposition Products:

In a fire, may produce oxides of nitrogen, magnesium, potassium, and sulfur; as well as, ammonia.

Strong oxidizing (permanganate, dichromate, nitrate, chlorine) and reducing agents, sodium nitrite

and many chlorine compounds (including household bleach and other cleaning products). Active

metals such as aluminum and magnesium.



Unusual Fire, Explosion, and Reactivity Hazards:

Decomposes on heating to high temperatures to emit ammonia, as well as toxic oxides of nitrogen,

potassium, and sulfur. High airborne dust concentrations have the potential for explosion.



In Case Of Fire:

Evacuate area. Flood with water to cool containers. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus to

fight large fires.



SECTION 7. REGULATORY INFORMATION

DOT Classification: Not DOT regulated.



SECTION 8. STORAGE AND SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Precautions in Handling and Storage:

Store in a cool, dry area away from incompatible materials and heat sources. Store away from

feed and foodstuffs, as well as household cleaning products. Wash hands with soap and water

after handling product. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

If Material is Released or Spilled:

Avoid dusting or misting conditions during cleanup. If material is uncontaminated, collect and

reuse as recommended for product. If contaminated, sweep up and scoop into suitable container

for disposal. Keep spills away from drinking water supplies. After cleaning up spill, flush area with

water.
