How Crews Contain, Remove and Dispose of Hazardous Materials in Passyunk Square

1. Quiet arrival

The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle, checks in with the owner and secures the area. Suits go on at the edge of the work zone.

The team checks labels, placards, safety data sheets and the history of the site. If the substance is unknown, it is treated as hazardous until identified.

3. Collect, clean, treat

Product and contaminated debris come out first. The site and the crew's own equipment are then cleaned with products suited to the material.
