Welcome to Spill Center Update, the information service focusing on hazmat transportation safety, risk avoidance and cost containment.
Value in Spill Preparedness?

Registering with Spill Center for spill management and reporting assistance is a good decision for any company whose operations put them at risk for accidental spills - not just of hazardous materials, but of diesel fuel and other regulated materials requiring environmental cleanup and reporting. Our support program is designed to help spill generators contain costs and limit liability related to spill emergencies.
 
Our clients include transporters, chemical producers, insurers - a broad range of companies whose operations involve the risk of accidental releases. After a spill, a single call or online report to Spill Center's 24/7 call center begins the process to resolve the incident at the least cost. We bring the right resources to bear quickly for a faster response to any incident.
 
Efficient spill management keeps the spill's impact and client costs to a minimum because the faster the response, the less environmental damage and less cleanup costs that result. We also provide an extensive list of important benefits to clients:
 
Avoidance of fines and penalties - We know who to report the spill to and when, so clients do not receive fines or penalties for late reports or otherwise failure to comply with regulations. We maintain up-to-date reporting regulations and contacts of nearly 30,000 federal, state, provincial and local jurisdictions throughout the USA and Canada.
 
Help Finding Cleanup Contractors - We maintain comprehensive information on more than 3,000 cleanup contractors throughout North America who are qualified to handle environmental spills. After a spill, we would provide you with the contacts and details of contractors in the vicinity of your spill, so that you can make an informed selection. We coordinate with the contractor and manage the cleanup and disposal.
 
Reduce Your Own Staffing Needs - We have specialists who handle spills on a daily basis, 24/7, so your staff doesn't have to maintain information and resources for handling spills. We stay ready to manage spills around the clock, even on weekends and holidays - so you don't have to.
 
Legal Documentation Included - We prepare documentation to place the client in a legally defensible position after a spill in the event of third-party liability lawsuits related to spills. You avoid the cost of document preparation, which has risen significantly in recent years as government paperwork requirements related to environmental spills have increased.
 
Reduced Charges from Responders - We offer invoice auditing service that can identify unfair and improper charges from fire departments and other emergency response agencies that bill the client for their services. We are successful at negotiating such charges and reducing costs to our clients.
 
For more than 20 years, Spill Center has been a leading spill management and environmental claims resource for companies in the transportation, chemical and insurance industries. Register today so our experienced team of environmental, technical and legal specialists can be a resource to your company, too.
