8 Table Extinguishing Media None ghting Equipment/Instructions Small fires in the incipient (beginning) stage may typically be extinguished using handheld portable fire extinguishers and other fire fighting equipment. Firefighting activities that may result in potential exposure to highheat, smoke or toxic by-products of combustion should require NIOSH/MSHA- approved pressure-demand self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece and full protective clothing. Isolate area around container involved in fire. unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles may be advantageous to further muire withdrawal, allowing the tank to burn. Large storage tank fires typically reexposure. Major fires may reqspecially trained personnel and equipment to extinguish the fire, often inclfighting foam.
