In order to ensure chemical safety in the workplace, the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration requires that information be available to employees and others regarding the identities and hazards of all chemicals stored and used in a workplace. OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requires the development and dissemination of such information in the form of a Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS). Growth Energy and our partners have recently developed a Material Safety Data Sheet for blends of 20 percent ethanol (E20) and 30% ethanol (E30). A MSDS sheet is also available for E85. It is important that each retailer offering such blends print copies of this information and display this in a prominent location available to employees, should you offer these blends.
