Hazardous Materials Cleanup in Downtown, Long Beach, CA: What Is Covered

Downtown is fairly dry, at about 12 inches of precipitation a year, so a spill on soil can linger in place until it is removed. Los Angeles County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA, and floodwater can tip over tanks and drums and carry hazardous materials across a site.

Hazmat Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Downtown, Long Beach, CA
How are hazardous materials 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 team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end.
Who responds to the emergency first?
Fire and emergency crews respond to immediate dangers, so call 911 first. They make the scene safe. Cleanup usually follows once they release the site. You can then get a cleanup team for removal, cleaning and disposal, and learn what records to keep.
What if I find unlabeled drums on a property?
Do not open, move or smell them. Keep people and pets away and take photos from a safe distance. You can get a cleanup team to identify the contents, sort them by hazard and set up lawful disposal.
How much does hazmat cleanup cost?
The hazmat cleanup cost depends on the material, the amount, the spread and the disposal fees. Published ranges vary widely. The local team gives a real price after it sees the site or hears the details. Ask what is included and what could change.
What if the spill reached soil or a drain?
Keep people away and call 911 if there is danger. Cleanup teams place barriers and absorbents to stop the spread and remove contaminated soil or materials where needed. Local fire and health officials can say what must be reported.
