(FACILITY NAME)
SPILL RESPONSE AND MITIGATION PLAN
Lexington City Facilities & Operations
Although one hundred percent of spills cannot be prevented, a team that is well prepared can minimize the
effects. A worker can avert contamination of surface water by being observant and working diligently
according to this plan.
At the discovery of a spill, quickly look for the source. Stop or slow the flow. If material is highly
flammable or hazardous and cannot be approached without specialized training or equipment,
immediately call 911.
Next, work to keep the spill out of the storm drain by placing oil absorbents, soil, straw, or mulch around the
spill while contacting one or more of the responsible individuals listed below. Cone off affected area to
identify spill area to others. If the spill has already entered the storm system, contain it within the storm
drainage network by obstructing the pipe or ditch downstream of the flow with soil or other dense material
before it leaves the pipe network. If you need additional resources to contain a spill contact Public Services
Administration at 336-248-3930 for response by Street Department or Public Works Maintenance &
Construction. After hours call City dispatcher at 336-248-2337.
In the case of a spill of highly flammable material (fuels or solvents) or hazardous substances that may
harm the eyes, skin or lungs, don't take chances, call 911. If the spill reaches the creek, call 911.

vendors and implement & organize spill clean-up and remediation activities.
For small fuel, oil, lubricant, and non -hazardous materials spills on impervious pavement, cover entire spill
with oil dry or other absorbent to contain it and safely remove it to a lined waste receptacle for disposal. For
larger oil and lubricant spills, cover affected area with oil dry until completely covered and allow absorbent to
contact fluids according to the manufacturer's instructions. Safely remove used absorbent material from
surface with a scoop and place in sealed disposable oil spill receptacle or contractor's bag. Reapply in the
same manner if oil remains. Dispose of oil contaminated waste materials properly. For larger spills, contain
flow with oil absorbent socks around spill and cover with absorbent. Remove spent absorbent in the same
manner as for small spills and repeat process until affected area is clean and contaminated absorbent is
discarded appropriately. Affected concrete surfaces may require additional cleaning with an appropriate
detergent or solvent. Consult your supervisor for instructions.
