Spill Response is a half day course (Level I), full day (Level II) or two day (Level III) is designed for in-

house employee first responders. This course is designed to protect workers responding to spills

and limit the potential environmental & financial impacts upon companies.

Using experienced trainers with hands on knowledge, we take students through all aspects of spill

response for hazardous materials in the work environment.

Level I:This is strictly a classroom based program with minimal hands on. This is intended for the

individuals not in the forefront of responding to spills.

Level II:This is intended for the individuals that are handling onsite spills while following their current spill

plan and procedures. We incorporate small to medium size spill (205 L volume estimate) response

techniques.

Level III:This is intended for the individuals that are handling onsite spills while following their current spill

plan and procedures. We incorporate large spills (>205 L volume estimate) response techniques as

outlined below. This program will include proper handling of hazardous waste, dangerous goods,

and other potential risks. We will incorporate a risk assessment relating to spills to evaluate the

potential of an incident.
