The Emergency Response and Spill Prevention Division responds 24 hours per day to emergencies that result from accidental and deliberate discharges and uncontrolled releases of oil, petroleum, hazardous wastes, and chemicals to the air, land and waterways from roadway incidents, industrials processes, oil and chemical spills, failed tanks/pipes and abandoned drums as well as biological and chemical weapons.
