IMMEDIATE RESPONSE TO A SPILL OF GASOLINE
If you are responsible for a spill of gasoline or other hazardous material, the regulations require you to respond immediately to contain the release and to notify government agencies who will then direct the response. You need to know what those regulations are and what is expected of you.
![Page 3: Response to a spill or release of Gasoline](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/557c68cad8b42a3e2c8b50fc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Protection Priorities
1. Protect people.2. Protect environment.3. Protect property.4. Limit liability.5. Ensure regulatory compliance.

Contain the Spill
• You are required to attempt to contain the spill if it can be done safely. This is required to protect…1. People/public.2. Environment.3. Property.
• This has the added benefit of protecting you from…4. Legal liability.5. Fines and penalties.

Report to GovernmentWill be Required if…
• Person injured or killed.• Release to “waters of the state”.• Obstruction to traffic on roadway.• Release off of your property.• Damage to environment.• Reported by “interested party”.• Release of Hazardous Substance above its Reportable
Quantity (RQ).

Who you notify depends on the above factors.

Notification Will IncludeState Agencies
Illinois EPA217.782.3637
If the emergency involves the release of potentially
hazardous materials to the environment.
Iowa DNR515.281.8694
Report to State and local police/county sheriff if
release poses danger to public or environment.

“If in doubt, report it.”

Do I Haveta’ Clean it up?
1. If a spill is not promptly cleaned up, it is considered to be discarded by being abandoned.
2. If the spill has the characteristics of a hazardous waste (eg. Ignitable, Toxic), then illegal disposal of a hazardous waste has occurred.

is on your property or off.

Nature of the Immediate Response
• Performed under the direction of the State agency.• Requirements will vary with each situation.• The regulations for management of hazardous waste
are waived during the “immediate response”.• Allows for:– Containment.– Clean-up.– Treatment.– But not disposal.

Whether or not an “immediate response”
turns into an enforcement action depends on you.

When “Immediate Response” Ends
• Duration of “immediate response” will depend on the State.
• Determined case-by-case.• When “immediate response” period ends, all
regulations come back into affect.• You may qualify for an emergency permit after
“immediate response” in order to continue clean up.

THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF A GENERATOR OF HAZARDOUS WASTE
The “immediate response” is over, but your regulatory responsibilities are just beginning. You are responsible for the proper handling and disposal of the waste generated from the gasoline spill.
![Page 11: Response to a spill or release of Gasoline](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/557c68cad8b42a3e2c8b50fc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What is Cradle to Grave?
• If you generate a hazardous waste, RCRA regulations are applicable throughout its lifecycle.
11
FOREVER!!!

The Responsibility of aHazardous Waste Generator
• State agency will continue to monitor your progress after the “immediate response” is complete.
1. Complete documented hazardous waste determination.
2. Determine hazardous waste generator status.3. Comply with regulations respective to generator
status.

The Hazardous Waste Determination
• Responsibility of the waste generator.
• Must be documented and records retained 3 years.
• Determination may be:– Knowledge-based.– Analysis-based.

What to do With the WastePending Determination
• An unknown waste must be managed as a hazardous waste pending the final determination.– Gathering information
for knowledge-based determination.
– Waiting on lab for analysis-based determination.

Recovered Gasoline may not be a Hazardous Waste if…
• It can be reused as a commercial chemical product for its original intended purpose.
Or• It is sent for reclamation.– “A material is ‘reclaimed’ if it is processed to
recover a usable product, or if it is regenerated.”• This is true even if it is a characteristic hazardous
waste.

• May “certify” it as a Non-Special, Non-Hazardous Waste.
Iowa
• Requires approval of a non-hazardous waste profile by the landfill and the IDNR.

THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE THREE HAZARDOUS WASTE GENERATORS STATUS
You’ve responded to the spill, made your hazardous waste determination, and identified your hazardous waste generator status. Now it is up to you, under the continued oversight of the State regulatory agency, to manage the hazardous waste properly on-site and ensure proper off-site disposal.

Two Regulatory Agencies When Transporting Hazardous Waste
![Page 47: Response to a spill or release of Gasoline](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/557c68cad8b42a3e2c8b50fc/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Preparing Hazardous Wastefor Transportation
• Proper container condition.
• Marking and labeling per DOT regulations.
• Provide placards to driver.
• Use Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest.
• Submit copies to IEPA.
47
![Page 48: Response to a spill or release of Gasoline](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062514/557c68cad8b42a3e2c8b50fc/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
It Ain’t Over ‘til…
• State agencies, and others, will require at least one follow-up written report.– As soon as practicable.– Within 30 days.
• Will need to demonstrate proper disposal of any waste to State agency.– Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest.

Be Prepared
• Employees trained and knowledgeable.• Spill response equipment available.• Provide communication system; on-site and en route.• For routine materials:– Determine reporting requirements.– Hazardous waste determination.– Hazards to employees, public, environment.
• Make financial arrangements with spill response contractor.
