Skin decontamination. Skin contamination should be treated promptly by washing with soap and water. Contamination of the eyes should be treated immediately by prolonged flushing of the eyes with large amounts of clean water. If dermal or ocular irritation persists, medical attention should be obtained without delay. Other herbicides
This chemical is a combustible liquid. Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, or alcohol foam extinguishers. Poisonous gases are produced in fire including nitrogen oxides and chlorine. If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Notify local health and fire officials and pollution control agencies. From a secure, explosion-proof location, use water spray to cool exposed containers. If cooling streams are ineffective (venting sound increases in volume and pitch, tank discolors, or shows any signs of deforming), withdraw immediately to a secure position. If employees are expected to fight fires, they must be trained and equipped in OSHA 1910.156.
Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Heating will cause rise in pressure with risk of bursting.
Use water spray, foam, powder, carbon dioxide.
Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Evacuate persons not wearing protective equipment from area of spill or leak until clean-up is complete. Remove all ignition sources. Collect powdered material in the most convenient and safe manner and deposit in sealed containers. Ventilate area after clean-up is complete. It may be necessary to contain and dispose of this chemical as a hazardous waste. If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Contact your Department of Environmental Protection or your regional office of the federal EPA for specific recommendations. If employees are required to clean-up spills, they must be properly trained and equipped. OSHA 1910.120(q) may be applicable.
NO open flames. Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.

AEROBIC: In soil, microbial degradation of propazine occurs, with hydrolysis of the chlorine atom to give hydroxypropazine, dealkylation of both substituted amino groups, presumably followed by ring opening and decomposition(1). The half-life in soil is approximately 80-100 days(1). Propazine was 36-64% degraded in a series of aerobic soil beds over a 54 week incubation period and 5.7-75% degraded in a series of anaerobic/aerobic cycled soil beds over a 54 week incubation period(2). In lab tests, no 14-CO2 release was observed in 16 weeks from a silt loam soil treated with propazine labeled with 14-C in the triazine ring(3). Two to fourteen months time has been reported as the time required for decomposition of propazine applied at "normal" application rates in soil(4); however, it was not reported whether this refers to total degradation of parent herbicide as well as active metabolites(SRC). The half-lives for degradation (purportedly mainly soil-catalyzed hydrolysis) of propazine in Hatzenbuhl soil at pH 4.8 and Neuhofen soil at pH 6.5 are 62 and 127 days, respectively(5). It has been reported that s-triazines which are similar in structure to propazine can be utilized by certain soil microorganisms as a source of energy(6).
An estimated BCF of 17 was calculated in fish for propazine(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.93(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
An avg Koc of 154 was calculated for propazine from 33 soils(1) and an avg Koc of 160 was calculated from 54 soils(2). The Koc of propazine in 4 European soils was measured in the range of 84-500(3). According to a classification scheme(4), this Koc data suggests that propazine is expected to have moderate mobility in soil.

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
