Fresh air, rest.

Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.

First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.

Rinse mouth. Rest. Refer for medical attention .

Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution. (ERG, 2016)

1. skin contamination should be removed promptly by washing with soap and water. contamination of the eyes should be treated immediately by prolonged flushing of the eyes with copious amounts of clean water. if dermal or ocular irritation persists, medical attention should be obtained without delay. other herbicides

Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. Do not scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire-control water for later disposal. FIRE INVOLVING TANKS: Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. (ERG, 2016)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Some may be transported hot. For UN3508, be aware of possible short circuiting as this product is transported in a charged state. (ERG, 2016)

Use water spray, powder, foam, carbon dioxide.

Do NOT wash away into sewer. 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. Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus.

The substance may have effects on the blood. This may result in anaemia.

Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered.

Most evidence indicates that linuron's loss in soil is due to biodegradation(1-2). Biodegradation is mainly cometabolic(1-2). Evidence for linuron's biodegradation in soil is found in the fact that degradation proceeds far slower in soil sterilized by heat or with chemicals(1). Loss of linuron also correlates with soil respiration(3). The degradation rate also is correlated with soil organic carbon content, adsorptivity and clay content(1,3). The rate of biodegradation increases as the concn of linuron in the soil decreases(4). The rate constant for the decomposition in soil increases as the square root of the concn at high concns and linear with the concn at low concns(2). At higher soil moistures and temperatures, linuron degrades faster(1,5). In most soils, at normal application rates, linuron degrades within 3-4 months(1). The half-lives of 4 ppm linuron incubated at 25 deg C in 18 mineral soils ranged from 22 to 86 days(5). The degradation rate of linuron in a sandy loam soil at 20 deg C was 0.0080 per day (half-life 87 days)(3).

Linuron residues accumulated in bluegill fish during 28 days of exposure to water treated at 0.1 and 1.0 ppm [C14] linuron(1). Maximum bioconcentration factors were 49 for whole fish, 34 for a muscle and 39 for carcass tissues. After 28 days of exposure, linuron residues in the viscera were identified as desmethyl linuron, norlinuron, and glucuronide conjugates. The edible tissues were not analyzed for linuron residues. Residues rapidly declined to approximately 10% of maximum levels after the 14-day depuration period(1). In one bioaccumulation study, orange-red killifish were exposed to 0.02 to 0.2 mg/l of linuron for 28 days(2). At the end of the experiment, the BCF of linuron in the fish ranged from 13 to 23. According to a classification scheme(3), BCF values ranging from 13 to 49 suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms ranges from low to moderate.

Adsorption incr as clay content &/or org matter content of soil incr; clays of high /cation/ exchange capacity absorb more linuron than those of low exchange capacity. ... leaching is not believed to be an important factor in disappearance from most soils.

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.
