3.5 - HANDLING OF AGRO-CHEMICALS
The
operator
could become contaminated due to accidental spray, contact or inhalation of products
or crop-spraying mixtures.
The
environment
could become polluted by mixture over-spills, puncturing of containers, uncon-
trolled storage of used and unwashed containers or spillage into waterworks.
In order to avoid these risks the preparation and filling operations must be carried out in suitably
appointed and adequately equipped sites.
3.5.1 - Storage
Fixed / stationary
: the site used must be well ventilated and secured by lockable doors in order to
prevent even accidental access by children or unauthorised persons.
Mobile
: the carrier equipment must be properly locked and kept under conditions whereby access
by children or unauthorised persons can be prevented during the absence of the operator. All full or
partially utilised containers must be secured against tipping, falling or breakage during transportation.
Both types of storage must:
— have a suitable container for the storing of empty packaging materials should a specific storage
area not be available;
— have a clean water supply readily available for washing, by means of a specific container or
through connection to the waterworks system;
— have the use of fire extinguishers, should flammable products and substances be stored.
- All packages, whether whole or partially utilised, must be stored in their original
packing and with the warning instructions clearly displayed and legible.
- The storage indications must always be scrupulously adhered to, as well as their
utilisation and possible disposal as suggested on the product’s original
packaging.
3.5.2 - Specific equipment
The site at which the preparation and filling out will take place must provide for:
— all the equipment necessary to the precise measuring of both the water quantity and the dose of
product to be mixed in the tank at every filling;
— all the equipment and means useful to the preparation of the mixture and for the cleaning of the
operator in case of contamination;
— all tools necessary to facilitate the direct introduction of the agro-chemicals in the tank;
— the allocation of clothing and specific equipment in order to avoid contamination by contact or
inhalation during the whole operative phase of the intervention;
— the availability of proper equipment able to stop the uncontrolled spilling and flowing of the mixture;
— a retaining valve on the feed pipe when the filling of the tank takes place directly from the
waterworks system.
3.5.3 - Disposal of empty containers and agro-chemicals residues
Agro-chemicals are classified as “special” waste and their disposal must take place separately from
“urban” wastes.
