11. Spill Control (Confinement)
Explain the difference between the two
Confinement techniques are methods that limit the physical size of the area of the release. Hazardous materials can be released (directly or indirectly) to air, surface water, groundwater, or land surface. Depending on the media affected, various methods are available that might help restrict the spread of materials.
Containment techniques are methods used to restrict the material to its original container. Until the released materials are contained, the area of involvement will grow larger. Whenever possible, it is important to contain the materials in order to limit the size of the area involved and minimize cleanup difficulties and cost.
Control techniques include both confinement and containment measures used collectively or independently.
