DAMAGE ASSESSMENT:a.b.c.Isolate area electrically and otherwise.Break out free-fighting equipment and prepare to combat fire and explosion.Determine gasoline vapor concentration in the air as related to the lower explosive limit. Select protectiveequipment and clothing based on this finding.3. REPAIR TASKS:a. Breakout spill cleanup equipment and stage materials in the local area.b. Dress out personnel in appropriate protective equipment provided in the spill cleanup kit. Inconcentrations above the LEL, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be used, ifavailable, vice OBAs.c. Contain spill using diking materials or other equipment.d. Stage equipment and materials to maximize efficiency separating contaminated materials for final disposal.e. Commence cleanup operations using absorbent pads and other equipment.f. Collect contaminated materials for reuse or segregate for disposal.g. Continue cleaning until no visible sign of liquid is present and vapor concentration levels are below10 percent of the LEL.h. Containerize contaminated materials in preparation for transportation and disposal. Sealed containers ofgasoline contaminated materials may be explosive and highly flammable. The materials shouldbe removed from the ship by the quickest available means including jettisoning overboard.i. Restore unused materials.j. Decontaminate personnel and equipment..k. Package residual contaminated material for disposal.1. Stow equipment and unused materials in spill kit and return kit to storage.m.
