1 Determination of classification of flammable liquids
For the purposes of this table, if a flammable liquid category 4 is used, handled or stored in the same spill compound as one or more flammable liquids of categories 1, 2 or 3, the total quantity of flammable liquids categories 1, 2 or 3 must be determined as if the flammable liquid category 4 had the same classification as the flammable liquid in the spill compound with the lowest flash point.
Example: For placarding and manifest purposes, a spill
compound containing 1 000 L of flammable liquid category 1 and 1
000 L of flammable liquid category 4 is considered to contain 2
000 L of flammable liquid category 1
