Crude Oil Emergency Action Guide* Petroleum Crude Oil Class 3 (Flammable Liquid) or Combustible Liquid Petroleum crude oil is a flammable, variably light to dark colored liquid hydrocarbon with properties between gasoline and kerOSene. It is used as a raw material for making fuels and various chemicals. Barely soluble in water and lighter, petroleum crude oil will form a floating surface slick. Flammability of this product can vary widely having a flash point range from -45 to The liquid may evaporate easily even at low temperatures. The vapors of the more volatile, and therefore more flammable crude oil, are heavier than air, may accumulate and persist in low areas, and may travel some distance to a source of ignition and flash back. Similarly, accumulations of vapor in con?ned spaces such as buildings or sewers may explode if ignited and there is some potential that containers of liquid may rupture violently if exposed to ?re or excessive heat for suf?cient time duration. Typical crude oil weigh approximately 6.3?8.3 pounds per gallon. Petroleum crude oil will not react with water or other common materials and is stable in normal transportation. It is incompatible with strong oxidizers, and may attack some forms of plastics, rubber, and coatings. Toxicity by potential routes of exposure is generally considered low to moderate. The more volatile mixtures may be present in air in high concentrations creating an inhalation hazard. There is also the possibility that the crude oil may contain some fraction of toxic benzene or hydrogen sul?de (see separate guides). Products of combustion may include toxic constituents. HENIICALI PHY SICAL Solubility in Water: Practically insoluble, below 0.1% Sela bility in Other Chemicals: Soluble in various hydrocarbon liquids.

IDLH: HOG or 10% LEL (Petroleum distillates). Conditions to Avoid: Heat, ?re, or sparks; contact with incompatible materials; runoff to sewers or water bodies; inhalation ingestion, or direct physical contact. HEALTH HAZARDS Public Health Hazards: Major hazard is from inhalation of high vapor concentrations in air. Ingestion and direct contact are also to be. avoided. (Note: Any benzene in the product increases both acute and chronic health risks.) Hazards ofSkin or Contact: Repeated or prolonged contact with liquid petroleum crude oil may cause drying. cracking, and in?ammation ot?thc skin due to the defatting action of the product. Contact with the eyes may result in irritatim and possibly temporary corneal injury. Hazards ofinimiatian: Vapors of petroleum crude oil may be irritating to the eyes and the upper respiratory tract. High concentrations in air may result in narcosis and central nervous system depression with including inebriation, headache, nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, unconsciousness, convulsions, and possibly death Some may be evident after 1 hour at in air. Acute overexposure may also result in persistent anorexia and nervousness on occasion. Howrah of Ingestion: Ingestion may cause a hunting sensation, vomiting, diarrhea, drowsiness, and listed above. Aspiration into the lungs during vomiting may result in pulmonary edema with possibly severe consequences. FIRE HAZARDS Lower Flammable Limit: 0.4% Upper tammabie Limit: 15% Behavior in fire: Flammable liquid. Liquid will burn but may be dif?cult to ignite depending on constituents. Flammable liquids may generate large quantities of ?ammable vapor upon release. Vapors of flammable liquids are heavier than air, may accumulate and persist in low areas, and may travel to a source of ignition and ?ash back. There is some potential that containers may rupture violently in tire. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Not well-defined, may include toxic constituents such as caer monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of sulfur and reactive hydrocarbons. EXPLOSION HAZARDS Evpiosii'e Potential: Explosion may result if vapors are ignited in a confined area. There is some potential that containers may rupture violently in tire. Product is sensitive to static discharge and is an extreme ?re- hazard, Vapors can burn with explosive violence. CSX Response to USDOT May 20 4 Emergency RestrictioniProhibition Order Page of IS Crude Oil Emergency Action Guide (continued) HT 6 PETROLEUM CRUDE OIL Class 3 (Flammable Liquid) or Combustible Liquid PERSONAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND Protective {0th ing Required: Equipment should prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact and any reasonable probability of contact with the spilled product. This may include rubber boots, gloves, face shields, splash-proof safety goggles, and other impen?ious and resistant clothing. Compatible materials may include neoprene, nitrile rubber, chlorinated polyethylene, polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol, Viton'g, and nitrile-butadiene rubber. Respirator Protection: For unknown concentrations, fire fighting, or high concentrations, a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full face piece. For lesser concentrations, an air purifying respirator (APR) with organic vapor cartridge with a full facepieco within the use limitations of these devices. FIRST AID Nonspect?c Irritation of the eyes, skin, or respiratory tract; other of exposure. first Aid for Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air and keep warm and at rest. If breathing becomes (lilTlCUll or if breathing has stopped, administer arti?cial respiration. Get medical attention immediately. (Caution: Administration of mouth-to- mouth resuscitation may expose the ?rst aid provider to chemical within the victim?s lungs or vomit.) First Airifor Skin Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, while holding eyelids apart in order to rinse entire surface of and lids with water. Provide supportive care and seek immediate medical assistance by a physician from the nearest medical treatment facility. First zlidfor Contact: Remove all contaminated clothing. Wash alfected body areas with large amounts of water. Decontaminate the patient thoroughly before transporting to a medical treatment facility to prevent the potential for secondary contamination. First Aid for Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Keep victim \vann and at rest. Get medical attention immediately. Note to Physician: Hydrocarbons may sensitize the heart to epinephrine and other circulating catecholamines so that may occur. Careful consideration of this potential adverse effect should precede administration of epinephrine or other cardiac stimulants and the selection of bronchodilators. FIRE RESPONSE Extinguishing Agents: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam, or water spray Water may be ineffective and there is some possibility that foam or water may cause some Erothing. Evtingnishing Techniques: Stay upwind. Wear breathing apparatus and appropriate protective clothing. Move container from ?re area if no risk. Do not extinguish burning cargo unless flow can be stopped safely. Be alert to container rupture potential. Stay away from ends of tank involved in ?re but realize that shrapnel may travel in any direction. Use. water from side and from safe distance to keep lire exposed containers cool. For massive fire in cargo area, use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or discoloration of tank. Note: Crude oil tires may produce a highly dangerous phenomenom known as a BOILOVER, whereby light hydrocarbons burn off at the surface of the ?re and heavy superheated hydrocarbons sink to the bottom and come. in contact with water bottoms. The super heated product converts the water to steam and forces burning crude oil out of the tank. Burning crude oil which has accumulated in tanks or diked areas are susceptible to boilovers. Seek expert advice on how to ?ght a crude oil lire. SPILL RESPONSES General Information: Proceed with caution. Restrict accem to area, Keep improtected personnel upwind of spill area. Eliminate ignition sources. Prevent liquid from entering sewers and confined spaces. Protect sewers and watenvays from contaminated runoff. Notify proper authorities, sewer and water treatment operations, and other users of potentially contaminated water. Note that intake of petroleum crude oil may result in rupture or explosion of boilers or industrial process equipment. Use intrinsically safe equipment where necessary. Choose equipment, where possible, that is not carroded or otherwise damaged by the spilled product. Take the speci?c ?ammability hazard and possible volatility of the spilled product into account while planning the response. CSX Response to USDOT May 20l4 Emergency Restriction/Prohibition Order I .

CONSEQUENCE Hazardous levels of product in air may be found in the local spill area and immediately downwind. Remove the spilled product as soon as possible. Restrict access to the local spill area and areas immediately downwind by unprotected personnel. TECHNI QUE WATER FOG OR SPRAY . . . Water fog or spray applied to petroleum crude oil vapors or fumes may accelerate their dispersal in the atmosphere. (Note: There is some possibility that water may cause frothing.) Increases in spill surface area and atmospheric conditions may increase the rate of vapor generation. In enclosed are as, runoff may add to spill volume and over?ll impoundments. Water runo?? may contain a small amount if any) of petroleum crude oil from contact with airborne vapors or fumes. 317 7'1le TI 0N Contain contaminated water and remove or treat as soon as possible to prevent spread of contamination Be alert to conditions such as ?re hose runoff or rainwater that may add to spill volume and overfill impoundments. TECHNIQUE FOAM. . . Fire?ghting foam applied to the surface of liquid pools may slow the release of petroleum crude oil vapors into the atmosphere. (Note: There is some possibility that foam may cause frothing.) CONSEQUENCE The effects ofthe foam maybe short term. As the foam breaks down, release of vapors will increase. Products of foam breakdown will add to the volume of spilled material. All TI GA TI 0N Continue foam applications until spilled product is removed. Contain foam runoff and treat as hazardous waste. LAND SPILL TECHNIQUE COIVTDTEMENT DIKES . . . Petroleum crude oil may be confined by building dikes using soil, sand or other materials.
