If there is a chance pollutants could spill or runoff your site, your business is required to:
· Create and follow a spill prevention and clean up plan · Keep a spill kit with response equipment anywhere spills may occur · Train your employees how to prevent and respond to spills
Most clean ups cost from $5,000 to $10,000. Creating a spill kit and plan is the most cost-effective way to prevent and deal with a potential spill. Resource Venture provides FREE spill kits and plans to Seattle businesses to prevent pollutants from spilling into the storm drainage system and directly into our waterways without treatment.
