ACTIONS
The following are examples of actions to take in the event of a spill. Please check all that apply to your business.
Notification
Alert manager/owner of spill. Immediately alert area occupants and supervisor, and evacuate the area, if necessary. Contact Emergency at 911 if there is a fire or medical attention is needed. Evaluate if you are trained, knowledgeable and equipped to handle the incident. If spill gets into storm drain or other water body, contact agencies listed above. First call should be to Department of Ecology.
Spill Clean Up
Obtain personal protective equipment, as appropriate to the hazards. Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet or other references for information. Stop source of spill (upright container, plug leak, etc). Seal off storm drain with berms or drain cover and stop any spread of the spill. Protect floor drains or other means for environmental release. Spill socks and absorbents may be placed around drains, as needed. Use pads and/or granular sorbent to clean up spilled material. Let pads sit on spill to absorb spilled material.
Spill & Clean Up Material Disposal
Loose spill control materials should be distributed over the entire spill area, working from the outside, circling to the inside. This reduces the chance of splash or spread of the spilled chemical. When spilled materials have been absorbed, use brush and scoop to place materials in an appropriate container (see flow chart). Remove spent pads and/or sorbent and dispose of properly (see flow chart). Call spill clean up contractor.
Also, please provide a short description of any additional emergency cleanup and disposal procedures not listed above that you will use at your site
