1. Let responders lead

Fire and emergency crews handle the immediate danger. Cleanup begins only when responders say the scene is safe to enter, and the team asks what they found.

2. Stop the spread

Absorbent socks, berms and drain covers keep the material from traveling. Leaking containers go into secondary containment.

3. Collect, clean, treat

Product and contaminated debris come out first. The site and the crew's own equipment are then cleaned with products suited to the material.

4. Pack, label, haul

Different materials are kept apart so they cannot react. Waste leaves the site by the route and rules that apply to its type.
