Who responds to the emergency first?
Fire and emergency crews respond to immediate dangers, so call 911 first. They make the scene safe. Cleanup usually follows once they release the site. You can then get a cleanup team for removal, cleaning and disposal, and learn what records to keep.

How do I handle hazardous waste safely?
Wear gloves and eye protection if the label says so, never mix products and keep containers closed. Leave unknown or leaking materials alone and call a professional. A cleanup team can pack and haul the waste lawfully.
What if a fuel or oil leak happens at my business?
Stop the source only if it is safe, keep people away and call 911 if there is fire risk or danger. A cleanup team contains the leak, removes soaked material and cleans pavement and equipment. It can also provide records for the insurer.
