Liquid waste spills that are not appropriately handled can harm the environment and your business.

In the event of any spill, the individual(s) who caused the spill is responsible for prompt and proper clean up. 

Many of the basic steps involved in cleaning up emergency and non-emergency spills and leaks are similar. 

As with all spills, know what you are dealing with, and only respond if you have been suitably trained, have the required materials on hand, and are wearing appropriate protective equipment.

You have a duty to notify pollution incidents to the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) on 131 555 or your local council. 

Failure to report a pollution incident that has the potential to cause material harm to the environment is an offence. The maximum penalty is $250,000 for corporations, or $120,000 for individuals.

Businesses responsible for causing a pollution incident, and/or the owners of the liquid waste, are responsible for clean up and disposal costs in the event of a spill.
