About this file
This file is an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard document and attachment to the City of Tampa's Predictive Maintenance Program procurement. The attachment outlines the uniform format requirements for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) that became mandatory as of June 1, 2015, establishing 16 standardized sections that chemical manufacturers, distributors, and importers must provide to communicate hazards of chemical products. The document specifies that SDSs must include product identification and emergency contact information in Section 1; hazard identification and labeling requirements in Section 2; chemical composition and ingredient information in Section 3; first-aid measures in Section 4; fire-fighting measures in Section 5; accidental release procedures in Section 6; handling and storage precautions in Section 7; exposure controls and personal protective equipment requirements in Section 8; physical and chemical properties in Section 9; stability and reactivity information in Section 10; toxicological information in Section 11; ecological information in Section 12; disposal considerations in Section 13; transport information in Section 14; regulatory information in Section 15; and preparation or revision dates in Section 16.
The attachment emphasizes that OSHA enforces only Sections 1 through 11 of the SDS, as Sections 12 through 15 are regulated by other federal agencies. This document serves as a compliance requirement for the Tampa predictive maintenance bid, mandating that contractors provide comprehensive SDSs for any chemical products used during maintenance activities at the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility and associated water infrastructure sites. The uniform format requirement ensures standardized hazard communication across all chemical products utilized in the maintenance operations, enabling water department personnel to understand chemical risks and implement appropriate safety protocols and protective measures throughout the maintenance program.

ATTACHMENT A
Occupational Safety and Health Administration Hazard Communication Safety Data Sheets
The Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requires chemical manufacturers, distributors, or importers to provide Safety Data Sh eets
(SDSs) (formerly known as Material Safety Data Sheets or MSDSs) to communicate the hazards of hazardous chemical products. As of
June 1, 2015, the HCS will require new SDSs to be in a uniform format, and include the section numbers, the headings, and associated information under the headings below:
Section 1, Identification: Includes product identifier; manufacturer or distributor name, address, phone number; emergency phone number; recommended use; restrictions on use.
Section 2, Hazard(s) identification: Includes all hazards regarding the chemical; required label elements.
Section 3, Composition/information on ingredients: Includes information on chemical ingredients; trade secret claims.
Section 4, First-aid measures: Includes important symptoms/effects, acute, delayed; required treatment.
Section 5, Fire-fighting measures: Lists suitable extinguishing techniques, equipment; chemical hazards from fire.
Section 6, Accidental release measures: Lists emergency procedures; protective equipment; proper methods of containment and cleanup.
Section 7, Handling, and storage: Lists precautions for safe handling and storage, including incompatibilities.
Section 8, Exposure controls/personal protection: Lists OSHA’s Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs); ACGIH Threshold Limit Values
(TLVs); and any other exposure limit used or recommended by the chemical manufacturer, importer, or employer preparing the SDS where available as well as appropriate engineering controls; personal protective equipment (PPE).
Section 9, Physical and chemical properties: Lists the chemical's characteristics.
Section 10, Stability, and reactivity: Lists chemical stability and possibility of hazardous reactions.
Section 11, Toxicological information: Includes routes of exposure; related symptoms, acute and chronic effects; numerical measures of toxicity.
Section 12, Ecological information*: Ecotoxicity (aquatic and terrestrial, where available); Persistence and degradability;
Bioaccumulative potential; Mobility in soil; other adverse effects (such as hazardous to the ozone layer).
Section 13, Disposal considerations*: Description of waste residues and information on their safe handling and methods of disposal, including the disposal of any contaminated packaging.
Section 14, Transport information*: UN number and shipping name; Transport hazard class(es); Packing group, if applicable;
Environmental hazards (e.g., Marine pollutant (Yes/No)); Transport in bulk (according to Annex II of MARPOL 73/78 and the IBC Code);
Other Special precautions which a user needs to be aware of, or needs to comply with, in connection with transport or conveyance either within or outside their premises.
Section 15, Regulatory information*: Safety, health, and environmental regulations specific for the product(s) in question.
Section 16, Other information: Includes the date of preparation or last revision.
*Note: Since other Agencies regulate this information, OSHA will not be enforcing Sections 12 through 15(29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(2)).
