For spills, releases or incidents requiring special training, procedures or personal protective equipment (PPE) that is beyond the abilities of present personnel, take the following steps:

• Immediately notify affected personnel and evacuate the spill area.
• Activate a fire alarm pull station if building evacuation is required.
• Call 911 to report the incident and be sure to provide the following information:
  • Your name, telephone number, and location
  • Type of incident
  • Name and quantity of the material, if known
  • Extent of injuries or damage, if any
• Evacuate the affected area at once and seal it off to prevent further contamination of others until the arrival of emergency personnel.
• Anyone who is contaminated by the spill should wash off the contamination; remain in the vicinity, and give his/her name to the emergency personnel. If needed, first aid can be started immediately.
• No effort to contain or clean up spills and or releases should be made unless you have been trained in the proper methods to do so.
• Take appropriate steps to make sure no one evacuates through the contaminated area.
• If an alarm sounds, follow established building evacuation procedures (see Building Evacuation).
• Do not re-enter the area until directed by emergency personnel.
