Wellsboro Toxic Waste Questions, Answered

How are chemicals disposed of?

Waste is sorted, labeled, packed and hauled by the rules that apply to its type. It does not go in the regular trash or down a drain. Ask the cleanup team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end.

What are the health risks of chemical exposure?

Chemicals can irritate or burn skin and eyes, harm the lungs and poison people who swallow them. Some give off fumes or catch fire. Call 911 in an emergency and Poison Control for exposure questions, and tell them the product name if known.

Does a chemical spill have to be reported?

Reporting rules depend on the substance, the amount and where it spilled. The local fire department, the health department or an attorney can say what applies. A cleanup team can explain the work and the records it can provide.

What should I do first after a chemical spill?

Get everyone away from the area, including pets. Call 911 if anyone is in danger, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Do not touch unknown containers or try to wash a spill away. Then call a cleanup team for next steps.

What if a mercury thermometer or lamp breaks?

Open a window if it is safe, leave the room and keep people and pets away. Do not vacuum or sweep mercury, since that spreads it. Call Poison Control with questions, and call a cleanup team if the spill is large.

Who pays for chemical cleanup in Pennsylvania?

The person or business that caused a spill is often responsible, and owners usually carry the cost on their own property. In a rental, the lease and local law decide. Some teams offer payment plans.
