(b)For each hazardous chemical brought to the mine, the operator must rely on the MSDS received from the chemical manufacturer or supplier, develop their own MSDS, or obtain one from another source.
(c)Although the operator is not responsible for an inaccurate MSDS obtained from the chemical's manufacturer, supplier, or other source, the operator must---
(1)Replace an outdated MSDS upon receipt of an updated revision, and
(2)Obtain an accurate MSDS as soon as possible after becoming aware of an inaccuracy.
(d)The operator is not required to prepare an MSDS for an intermediate chemical or by-product resulting from mining or milling if its hazards are already addressed on the MSDS of the source chemical.
