Part One of Oil Spill Response is "Initial Response." This tape discusses how spills commonly occur, and provides an overview of factors to consider during the response. It studies the different types of oils, including gasoline, jet fuel, naphtha, gasoline, diesel fuels, asphalt, and crude oil, and talks about the hazards associated with oil during the different phases of the spill, including fire risk, toxicity, mechanical dangers, and environmental threats. "Initial Response" also tells what agencies must be notified of a spill, and discusses how spills behave and the factors that will cause one spill to behave differently from another. Other topics covered include sizing up the situation, site control, responder safety, incident management, and mounting a nonintrusive response. 25 minutes
