Oil and Chemical Spills: An Explanation The Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) maintains a record of all oil and chemical spills that are reported to the DEP in its Oil and Chemical Spill Database. This database includes spills ranging from an accidental diesel fuel spill to major accident at a chemical manufacturing facility. It is important to note that this database only includes those spills which were reported to the DEP and in most cases, the size of the spill is unknown.

25. Reporting Hazardous Material & Chemical Spills: Everything You Need To Know Hazardous Material chemical spills Everything You Need To Know. http://www.ehso.com/ChemSpills.htm

Everything You Need To Know Requirements Overview How to Report Chemical Fact Sheets Exemptions Reporting Requirements For releases of hazardous substances, the federal government has established a reportable quantity , or " RQ ," that triggers the reporting requirements under the Superfund law. If a hazardous substance is released to the environment in an amount that equals or exceeds its RQ, the release must be reported to federal authorities so that emergency response personnel can evaluate whether a response action is needed. The RQ value is not the only factor used to determine whether federal notification requirements apply. Certain exempt types of releases don't need to be reported everytime an RQ or more is released and others don't have to be reported at all. Under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986, the federal government has designated several hundred as "extremely hazardous substances" based on their acute lethal toxicity. Under the law, releases of these extremely hazardous substances trigger reporting requirements to state and local authorities. Specifically, EPA requires that the owner or operator of a facility that releases an extremely hazardous substance in an amount greater than its established RQ notify the state emergency response commission and the local emergency planning committee established for the location where the incident occurs. There are over 100 chemicals that are designated as both a Superfund hazardous substance and an EPCRA extremely hazardous substance. In the event of a release of any of these substances, the person responsible for the release is required to contact all of the appropriate federal, state, and local authorities.

Dealing with chemical spills from industry Introduction: Harmful and long term effects of pollution is a raising concern that has forced governments to form hundreds of different organizations to study, plan, control or prevent industrial pollutions. Chemical spill is by far the most devastating cause of soil and water pollution in the word and it's affects often remains for many centuries. When liquid chemicals enter the ground, they are practically out of control. They get to under ground waters and then travel in different directions for many miles. Removing contaminations caused by chemical spills is now a big profitable business for many environmental protection companies around the world. In this project we will study dealing chemical spill and attempt to discover new or existing methods that can be used to cleanup the contaminations caused by a chemical spill. Project description: In this project you will simulate different spill related contaminations and examine different methods that might be used for cleanup. All experiments can be performed using the material and equipment that can be found at home or can be obtained locally.

Chemical Spills Emergency Actions In TCU Educational Facilities: It is the responsibility of the faculty and lab instructors to know the characteristics of the chemicals they work with and to take appropriate precautions to protect themselves and students in containing spills that occur. Material Safety Data Sheets for Academic areas are maintained in the Sid Richardson Chemical Stock Room. In TCU Work Areas: It is the responsibility of employees to know the chemicals they work with and to take precautions to protect themselves in containing spills that occur. Individual Departments are responsible for maintaining a current list of Material Safety Data Sheets. First priority is First Aid. Any spill that results in personal exposure should be treated immediately. Eyes or Skin contact: If chemical is a liquid, assist the person to a sink/eyewash and flush the eyes or affected skin areas with water thoroughly and continuously for a minimum of 15 minutes. If chemical is a solid, brush chemical off skin gently. Remove contaminated clothing. Contact Campus Police (7777) for an ambulance.

Yale University personnel should always contact their supervisor, Office of Environmental Health and Safety emergency response personnel, and other trained emergency responders in the event of an emergency. Chemical Spills on the Body Quickly remove all contaminated clothing and footwear. Immediately flood the affected body area in cold water for at least 15 minutes. Remove jewelry to facilitate removal of any residual material. Wash off chemical with water only. Do not use neutralizing chemicals, cream, lotions or salves. Get medical attention promptly. Call for assistance. It should be noted that some chemicals (phenol, aniline,) are rapidly adsorbed through skin. If a large enough area of skin is contaminated an adverse health effect (systematic toxicological reaction) may occur immediately to several hours after initial exposure depending on the chemical. If more than 9 square inches of the skin area has been exposed to a hazardous chemical, seek medical attention after washing the material off the skin. If the incident involves hydrofluoric acid (HF), seek immediate medical attention. Provide the physician with the chemical name.

New technology may develop to improve methods of dealing with marine spills, but until extensively proven will not be exclusively used in spill response. The National Plan recognises there are limitations in responding to a spill in the marine environment. The ability to respond effectively depends on what is physically and scientifically possible. Currently there is not the technology to prevent weatherdriven slicks or airborne contaminants from coming ashore, nor can prevention of environmental damage or economic loss be guaranteed. Use of dispersants Chemical dispersal of oil may be used only when all environmental effects have been considered. The effective use of dispersant requires quick decision-making so that oil can be dispersed at sea before it can come ashore. The National Plan has in place a Fixed Wing Aerial Dispersant Capability (FWADC) program for the application of oil spill dispersant. The FWADC uses large agricultural aircraft with a dispersant capacity of between 1850 and 3100 litres. This complements dispersant spraying arrangements using helicopters, which are confined to close inshore work.
