Safety Center HAZMAT - Toxic Chemical Spills The Risks Hazardous chemicals are stored and transported all around us. An accidental spill can happen anywhere, at anytime, and with no warning. You must know how to protect yourself until rescue workers can arrive and take control of the situation. What to look for If you live near a water tower, then chances are there is a chlorine cylinder stored nearby. If you live near an industrial park, then there may be large quantities of hydrogen fluoride, acids, etc. stored in tanks or buildings. If you live near a transportation route, such as a highway or railroad, chances are that thousands of gallons of hazardous materials go by your home every day. Anytime there is an accident involving any of these sites or vehicles, hazardous chemicals may be released. You may see a cloud of mist or smoke, hear an explosion, see a large fire, or hear the sounds of crashing metal in an accident. If this happens, you should take immediate precautions. Evacuate or Shelter-in-Place People's natural reaction to danger is to get away from it. In some cases, however, leaving your home or other building could expose you to greater danger than staying inside. This is never an easy decision, but there are some general guidelines you can follow:

All individuals at risk due to the spill should be warned immediately. If the spill involves nonvolatile, nonflammable and nontoxic material then it should be cleaned up as directed by your supervisor. Most cleanups of liquid spills are facilitated by the use of an absorbent material that will neutralize the liquid where appropriate. Cleanup can then be carried out using a dustpan, brush and appropriate protective equipment. The spill area should be washed following the cleanup. If a hazardous chemical such as a flammable, toxic or highly reactive substance is spilled, immediately warn everyone in the area. Shut down all equipment and leave the area. Your supervisor should be notified immediately and will be responsible for the proper cleanup of the contaminated area. Any clothing that has been contaminated should be removed as quickly as possible and decontaminated where possible. Waste from chemical spills must be disposed of in an appropriate manner

Best Practices for Migratory Bird Care During Oil Spill Response Cover Memo Final Document The challenge of managing oil spills in the United States is increasing in complexity and magnitude. Oil spills threaten millions of miles of coastline, river systems, lakes and terrestrial habitat daily, particularly where there is extensive oil drilling, refining, and transport. Serious, and potentially permanent, ecological damage is possible where chronic spills or spills of national significance occur. The goal of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Oil Spill Program is to emphasize early (contingency) planning and cooperation at the local, regional and national level in an effort to minimize the injury to fish, wildlife, and sensitive environments from oil spills. The Departments of the Interior, Commerce and Agriculture, together with Tribal governments, States, and other jurisdictions, are responsible for protecting these natural resources. Because oil spills respect no boundaries, uniform Federal policies and programs are essential. In addition, since the resources necessary to respond to oil spills are limited and vary among the response agencies, it is more important than ever to establish and strengthen cooperative relationships.
