Spill control refers to the measures and protocols put in place to prevent, contain, and manage accidental spills of hazardous substances or pollutants.
It involves the use of preventive measures such as proper storage, handling, and transportation practices to minimize the risk of spills. In the event of a spill, spill control includes immediate response actions to contain the spill, mitigate its impact on the environment and human health, and safely clean up and dispose of the spilled materials. Spill control procedures aim to protect workers, the public, and the environment from the adverse effects of spills, including contamination of soil, water sources, and air pollution.
