INDUCE VOMITING by sticking finger in throat. Lower the head so that the vomit will not reenter the mouth and throat.
Ingestion
Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues are damaged, a possible indication that the toxic
material was ingested; the absence of such signs, however, is not conclusive.

Section XII.Ecological Information
Not available.
Ecotoxicity
Environmental Fatecis-1,3-Dichloropropene's production and use as a soil fumigant and nematicide is expected to result in its direct release to
the environment. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 26 mm Hg at 20 deg C indicates cis-1,3-dichloropropene will exist
solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase cis-1,3-dichloropropene will be degraded in the atmosphere by
reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 46 hrs. If
released to soil, cis-1,3-dichloropropene is expected to have very high mobility based upon a range of Kocs from 20 to 42.
Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of
2.7X10-3 atm-cu m/mole. cis-1,3-Dichloropropene may volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure.
cis-1,3-Dichloropropene is expected to biodegrade in soil and water under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Under aerobic
conditions, the half-life for 1,3-dichloropropene was 12 days in a loam soil. Under anaerobic conditions at 25 deg C, in both a
silty clay loam and sandy loam soil, the half-life was 2.4 days. If released into water, cis-1,3-dichloropropene is not expected
to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the Kocs. Volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be an
important fate process based upon this compound's Henry's Law constant. Estimated volatilization half-lives for a model river
and model lake are 1.3 and 102 hrs, respectively. An estimated BCF of 8 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in
aquatic organisms is low. cis-1,3-Dichloropropene degrades by chemical hydrolysis; at pH values of 5, 7, 9, the half-life of
1,3-dichloropropene was 13.5 days at 20 deg C. Occupational exposure to cis-1,3-dichloropropene may occur through
inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where cis-1,3-dichloropropene is produced or used.
Occupational exposure may also occur for agricultural workers using this compound as a soil fumigant and nematicide. The
general population may be exposed to cis-1,3-dichloropropene via inhalation of ambient air and drinking water in areas where
cis-1,3-dichloropropene is used a soil fumigant and nematicide.
(Methanol)
Methanol's production and use as a solvent, fuel additive, and in the production of formaldehyde, acetic acid, and methyl
tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. Methanol has been
identified as a natural emission product from various plants and as a biological decomposition product of biological wastes
and sewage. If released to the atmosphere, a vapor pressure of 127 mm Hg at 25 deg C indicates that methanol will exist
solely in the vapor phase. Vapor phase methanol is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced
hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 17 days. If released to soil, methanol is expected to
have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 1. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an
important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 4.55X10-6 atm-cu m/mole. Methanol may also volatilize from
dry soils based upon it vapor pressure. Biodegradation of methanol in soils is expected to occur rapidly based on half-lives in
a sandy silt loam from Texas and a sandy loam from Mississippi of 1 and 3.2 days, respectively. If released into water,
methanol is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. Volatilization from
water surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's Henry's Law constant. Estimated
volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 3 and 35 days, respectively. Biodegradation is expected to occur

(1mg/ml in Methanol) [for Water Analysis]
in natural waters since methanol is degraded quickly in soils and was biodegraded rapidly in various aqueous screening tests
using sewage seed or activated sludge. BCF values of less than 10, measured in fish suggests bioconcentration in aquatic
organisms is low. Hydrolysis of methanol and photolysis in sunlit surface waters are not expected since methanol lacks
functional groups that are susceptible to hydrolysis or photolysis under environmental conditions. Occupational exposure to
methanol may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where methanol is produced or
used. Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to methanol via inhalation of ambient air, and
ingestion of food and drinking water.
