1. Define the scope

The crew agrees with the owner on the area, the material and the goals. Questions about insurers, inspectors and timing are welcome at this stage.

2. Gear up and set the zone

Chemical-resistant suits, gloves, eye protection and respirators go on as the hazard requires. The work zone is marked and ventilation is managed.

3. Collect, clean, treat

Product and contaminated debris come out first. The site and the crew's own equipment are then cleaned with products suited to the material.

4. Close out

Waste is packed and taken away. A last check of the area ends with a plain explanation of the work and the paperwork.
