With a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA, Los Angeles County can face spills that spread quickly in high water and call for fast containment. Val Verde is fairly dry, at about 17 inches of precipitation a year, so a spill on soil can linger in place until it is removed.

A typical hazmat cleanup job includes:

  • Containment of fuel, oil, solvent and chemical spills so they do not reach drains or soil
  • Hazmat equipment cleaning for tools, gear, machinery and vehicles that touched the material
  • Labeling of waste and records of what was collected and where it was hauled
  • Removal of contaminated soil, gravel, flooring and debris from the release area
  • Sorting and repacking of damaged, leaking and unlabeled containers by hazard type

The Hazmat Cleaning Process in Val Verde, Step by Step

1. Walk the site safely

Crews observe from a safe distance and check air and surroundings before entering. They photograph labels and the spread of the release.

2. Stop the spread

Absorbent socks, berms and drain covers keep the material from traveling. Leaking containers go into secondary containment.

3. Collect, clean, treat

Product and contaminated debris come out first. The site and the crew's own equipment are then cleaned with products suited to the material.

4. Close out

Waste is packed and taken away. A last check of the area ends with a plain explanation of the work and the paperwork.

Hazmat Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Val Verde, CA

Can a hazmat crew help after a flood or fire?

Yes. Floods and fires can break containers and mix contents. Crews identify what spilled, contain it and remove damaged containers and soaked materials. They also clean the surfaces the release touched.

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.

What is hazmat equipment cleaning?

It is the decontamination of tools, gear, machinery and vehicles that touched a hazardous material. Items are cleaned with products suited to the material, and those that cannot be made safe are packed for disposal.

Do OSHA rules apply to hazmat cleanup?

OSHA sets safety rules for workers who respond to and clean up hazardous substances. Professional crews follow those rules and use gear matched to the hazard. Employers have their own duties, which safety staff or an attorney can explain.

Can I clean up a hazardous spill myself?

Small spills of familiar products may be manageable by following the label. Large, unknown or dangerous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.

How do I get rid of hazardous materials?

Do not pour them down a drain or put them in the trash. Keep them in their original containers, away from heat and children, and have a cleanup team collect anything leaking or unknown. Waste must go to a facility that can accept it.
