Everyone leaves the area, and 911 is called if anyone is in danger. Crews check air and surroundings before entering.
The crew looks at how far the spill spread and what it touched. It notes drains, soil, porous materials and anything that needs to be kept away from the area.
Barriers and absorbent materials stop the spill from spreading. The substance, damaged containers and soaked items are collected in suitable sealed containers.
The team packs the waste and takes it away. A final check of the area ends with a plain summary for the owner.
The cost of chemical & toxic waste cleanup in Janesville, WI depends on the amount of material, how it is packed and how it is hauled.
