San Bernardino County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA, and floodwater can tip over tanks and drums and carry hazardous materials across a site. Ontario is fairly dry, at about 12 inches of precipitation a year, so a spill on soil can linger in place until it is removed.
A typical hazmat cleanup job includes:
- Identification of unknown materials using labels, placards and safety data sheets
- Response to abandoned drums and containers found at rentals, lots and storage units
- Cleanup of flooded or fire-damaged sites where containers broke and contents are unknown
- Containment of fuel, oil, solvent and chemical spills so they do not reach drains or soil
- Collection of spilled product with absorbents, pads, socks and suitable tools
