3. Cleanup and Remediation:
   • Conduct thorough cleanup and remediation activities to restore the affected area to its pre-spill condition.
   • Utilize appropriate remediation techniques, such as soil excavation, bioremediation, or chemical treatment, depending on the nature and extent of the contamination.
   • Monitor air, soil, and water quality throughout the remediation process to ensure that environmental standards are met.
4. Waste Management:
   • Properly manage and dispose of contaminated materials and waste in accordance with regulatory requirements.
