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.
Barriers go up and the spread is stopped. The crew keeps people out and the job as private as the site allows.
Stained concrete, soaked soil and contaminated surfaces are cleaned or removed. Tools are decontaminated or disposed of after use.
Different materials are kept apart so they cannot react. Waste leaves the site by the route and rules that apply to its type.
