Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound include vomiting, tremors and convulsions. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition this compound emits toxic fumes of chlorine. (NTP, 1992)
Treatment is symptomatic and supportive. Oils should not be used as either cathartics or dermal cleansing agents, as they increase absorption. Gastric lavage and use of activated charcoal and sodium sulfate are indicated for ingestion. If dermal exposure occurred, contaminated clothes should be removed, and the skin should be thoroughly cleansed with soap and water. Management of seizures in both children and adults is with Valium or phenobarbital. Respiratory depression and even respiratory arrest, especially with concomitant use of Valium and phenobarbital in children, may occur. These drugs preferably should be used only in critical care areas where emergency endotracheal intubation can be performed. /It is recommended/ that epinephrine not be utilized in patients with organochlorine poisoning, as the organochlorines induce myocardial irritability and ventricular arrhythmias may occur. However, dopamine may be necessary in the event of hypotension unresponsive to fluid administration, and epinephrine may be necessary in the event of cardiopulmonary arrest. Organochlorine insecticides
If material on fire or involved in fire: Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped. Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use "alcohol" foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Organochlorine pesticide, liquid
This chemical is combustible. (NTP, 1992)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Environmental considerations: Water spill: Use natural barriers or oil spill control booms to limit spill travel. Use natural deep water pockets, excavated lagoons, or sand bag barriers to trap material at bottom. Remove trapped material with suction hoses. Organochlorine pesticide, solid, toxic
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.
Store in a cool, dry place.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

AEROBIC: In a soil field study conducted in Deleware, US, chloroneb was reported to have a half-life of 3 to 6 months following its incorporation 2 to 3 inches from the surface of a Keyport silt loam at a concentration of 2 lb active ingredient per acre(1). About 90% of the residual activity recovered from the soil after this period was the parent chloroneb(1). Half-lives of 10 to 180 days have been reported in soil(2). Chloroneb was added to samples of Chalmers silty clay loam soil (at 5.7 ug/g), Kentucky blue grass thatch(at 8.0 ug/g), and Kentucky blue grass clippings(at 8.0 ug/g) and incubated at 25 deg C at a constant moisture (26, 76, and 75%, respectively)(3). Half-lives of 2.7, 8.7, and 69.3 days were reported for the soil, thatch, and grass clipping samples, respectively, when chloroneb was added as a single compound(3). Half-lives of 4.3, 8.7, and 69.3 days were reported for the soil, thatch, and grass clipping samples, respectively, when chloroneb was added as a mixture with triadimefon and vinclozolin(3).
An estimated BCF of 190 was calculated for chloroneb(SRC), using a measured water solubility of 8 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC), provided the compound is not altered physically or chemically once released into the environment.
Koc values of 1,653(1), 1,260(2), 1,200(3), and 714(4) were measured for chloroneb in soil(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), these estimated Koc values suggest that chloroneb is expected to have low mobility in soil. In a soil TLC plate study using Hagerstown silty clay loam soil (pH 6.8, 2.5% organic matter, 39.5% clay), chloroneb was immobile(6). In a field study, chloroneb was incorporated into a Keystone silt loam to a depth of 2 to 3 inches. After 6 months, nearly all of the chloroneb remained in the treated layer of soil(7).

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.
