pollution response operations

Pollution response operations involve coordinated efforts to manage and mitigate the impact of harmful substances released into the environment, such as oil spills, chemical leaks, or sewage discharges. These operations include quickly identifying the contaminant, containing its spread, and removing or neutralizing it to protect ecosystems, public health, and property. Teams use specialized equipment and methods like barriers, skimmers, or absorbents to clean up effectively. The goal is to minimize environmental damage, prevent further contamination, and restore affected areas as efficiently as possible.
