your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well 
ventilated area, and work with approved safety 
equipment, such as those dust masks that are 
specially designed to lter out microscopic particles.

all applicable national, state or provisional health 
and safety regulations relating to them, including, 
if appropriate arranging for the safe disposal of the
