Persons coming into contact with a spilled hazardous waste should <br />remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water. Obtain medical <br />attention as soon as possible. <br />SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR HAZARDOUS WASTE EMERGENCIES <br />All accumulated liquids and materials collected during clean-up operations must be labeled <br />and marked as appropriate for the waste material. Mixing more than one waste or adding <br />soil during clean-up activities may result in the composition of the waste material being <br />unknown. Samples of resulting materials shall be taken if for any reason the identity of the <br />material is uncertain. <br />Any equipment used in a clean-up activity must be cleaned using materials appropriate to <br />remove the contaminant. The resulting material from this decontamination process shall be <br />placed in a DOT UN specification container suitable for the lading for disposal, unless it is <br />deemed incompatible with the other waste materials already contained within the drums. <br />The Emergency Coordinator must ensure that no hazardous wastes are received at the <br />branch for storage until Branch Operations have been returned to normal. <br />Refer to the Operating Standards Manual for further details of the HAZVVOPER Program.
