About this file
This file is an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reference document outlining the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requirements for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs). The document details the sixteen mandatory sections that must be included in SDSs as of June 1, 2015, establishing a uniform format for communicating chemical hazards. Section 1 requires product identification and manufacturer information; Section 2 addresses hazard identification; Section 3 covers composition and ingredients; Section 4 specifies first-aid measures; Section 5 details fire-fighting measures; Section 6 addresses accidental release procedures; Section 7 covers handling and storage; Section 8 outlines exposure controls and personal protection equipment requirements; and Section 9 lists physical and chemical properties. Sections 10 and 11 address chemical stability, reactivity, and toxicological information, while Sections 12 through 15 cover ecological information, disposal considerations, transport information, and regulatory requirements, though OSHA does not enforce these latter sections.
This attachment serves as a compliance reference document rather than a procurement specification. It establishes the standardized framework that chemical manufacturers, distributors, and importers must follow when preparing SDSs for hazardous chemical products. The document directs users to OSHA's website for detailed guidance on each section and emphasizes that while Sections 12 through 15 are required components, they are regulated and enforced by agencies other than OSHA under 29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(2). This document appears to be included as supporting reference material in the Motorola SCADA procurement to ensure compliance with hazardous materials handling and communication requirements during equipment delivery, installation, and maintenance operations.

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)).
