Small parts can be cleaned with degreasing solvents and detergents which are reused after filtering or recycled. These solvents may not be discharged into any sewer,sanitary or storm. Further information is available from the Department of Ecology. 4-2.1.7 BMP C1.70 SPILL CONTROL PLANNING AND CLEANUP Construction site supervisors should adopt a spill control plan and identify persons responsible for implementing the plan if a spill of a dangerous or hazardous waste should occur. Any spill that occurs within the City of Everett,regardless of the size and/or type of spill, should be reported to the following agencies: City of Everett,259-8821 (24-hour) Department of Ecology,Northwest Region,649-7000(24-hour) If the spill of a hazardous substance could reach surface waters,the National Response Center should be contacted at 1-800-424-8802(24-hour number). For spills within salt water,the U.S. Coast Guard must be contacted at 286-5440. There are fines for failing to notify the appropriate authority when a spill occurs. Some of the important components of a spill control plan are: - Establish who to notify in the event of a spill,particularly if it is hazardous. - Provide specific clean-up instructions for different products handled on site. - Assign a person to be in charge of clean-up assistance. - Prepare spill containment and clean-up lists that are easy to find and use. - Post a summary of the clean-up plan at appropriate locations. - Demobilize a spill it as quickly as possible if it occurs. - Plug inlets and turn off/divert any incoming water to prevent spills from entering storm drains or sewers. - Cover the spill with absorbent material such as kitty litter or sawdust. Do not use straw. Dispose of the used absorbent per Ecology or manufacturer's instructions. If the spill is flammable,dispose of as directed by the local fire marshal. - Keep the area well ventilated. 4-2-4
