Respond to possible chemical exposure

A product, medication, fertilizer, aerosol or spill may expose shrimp.

Use the whole card. The action stays attached to what must be observed and recorded, plus the nearest inference or action the current guidance cannot support.

Observe first

Identify the exact product and chemical, route, time, amount, water volume, label, measured concentration if available and animal denominator.

First action

Stop a known continuing exposure when safe, preserve the package or label and use measured water and animal observations for escalation.

Record next

Record product, lot, ingredient form, timing, estimated or measured exposure, water chemistry, actions, deaths and delayed outcomes.

Stop boundary

Do not certify a product from one ingredient label or convert a laboratory response, no-death result or nominal dose into universal safety.
