Atlanta receives about 48 inches of precipitation a year, and rain can wash spilled fuel and chemicals into ditches, drains and yards. A plan for a spill in Atlanta should include where to seek care, such as Grady Memorial Hospital about 2 miles away, as well as who will do the cleanup.

Sorting and repacking of damaged, leaking and unlabeled containers by hazard type
Response to abandoned drums and containers found at rentals, lots and storage units
Containment of fuel, oil, solvent and chemical spills so they do not reach drains or soil
Cleanup after a vehicle accident, tank failure or equipment leak at a business or farm
Cleanup of flooded or fire-damaged sites where containers broke and contents are unknown
