Personal Protection

Loose-fitting or well ventilated long-sleeved shirt and long pants. Shoes and socks. Full-face shield or safety glasses with brow and temple shields when handling the liquid product (Do NOT wear goggles). When the air concentration level is above 0.1 ppm for chloropicrin OR above 5 ppm for methyl bromide and a respirator is required, protect the eyes by wearing a full-face respirator. No respirator is required if the air concentration level of chloropicrin in the working area is measured to be less than 0.1 ppm AND the air concentration level of methyl bromide in the working area is measured to be less than 5 ppm. A respirator is required if the acceptable air concentration level of 0.1 ppm for chloropicrin OR 5 ppm for methyl bromide is exceeded at any time. The respirator must be one of the following types: (a) a supplied-air respirator (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-19C) OR (b) A self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-13F). Under normal soil fumigation conditions, the air concentration level of chloropicrin in the working area will not generally exceed 0.1 ppm AND the air concentration level of methyl bromide in the working area will not generally exceed 5 ppm. Therefore, no respiratory protection is required. However, there is the possibility of a spill or leak during soil fumigation. Therefore, a respirator of a type specified above must be available and will be required for entry into an affected area in the event of a leak or spill.
