Question 96Safety & Environmental - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is A) Material Safety Data Sheet. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is the standard document that provides detailed information about a specific chemical, including its physical properties, health hazards, required safety controls, firefighting procedures, cleanup methods, waste disposal, and safe handling and storage requirements. This comprehensive information is required by regulations to be provided with any hazardous chemical, allowing users to properly identify and manage the risks associated with that substance. The other options are incorrect because they are not the standard, regulated term for this type of document. "Physical/Chemical Characteristics Document" and "Hazardous Chemical Information Sheet" are not commonly used or defined terms, while "Hazardous Chemical Loading Document" does not accurately describe the purpose and contents of the MSDS.
