When Employee #1 bent over to retrieve the lid, he was overcome by vapors. Employee #1 was taken by ambulance to a hospital and released, suffering no lasting effects. Subsequent tests did not implicate any specific chemical. No bulk sample could be taken as the drums had been immediately removed from the site.
