Special Protective Equipment & Evacuate area and fight fire upwind from a safe distance to avoid
Precautions: hazardous vapors and decomposition products. Foam and/or dry
chemical are preferred to minimize environmental contamination. If
water is used, dike and collect water to prevent run-off. Wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and full fire-fighting turn-out gear
(Bunker gear).
