WHAT ARE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS?

Hazardous materials are chemicals, which if released, spilled or misused can pose a threat to the environment or health. These chemicals are used in industry, agriculture, medicine, research, and consumer products. Hazardous materials come in many forms. They can be liquids, powders, solids, or gases. They can be explosives, flammable and combustible substances, poisons, and radioactive materials.

These substances are most often released as a result of transportation accidents or because of accidents in plants where they are produced or used.

WHY DO WE NEED HAZMAT TEAMS?

If not contained immediately and properly, hazardous materials can cause death, serious injury, long-lasting health effects, and damage to buildings, homes, and other property.

The HazMat Team is here to ensure that any incident is contained and its effects on the residents of this county are minimized.
