Environmental Management is in Oklahoma, but I am in another state - how can EMI handle my emergency response?

In addition to Environmental Management’s direct emergency response capabilities, we have a network of over 1000 environmental subcontractors to provide spill response services throughout the United States and Canada. Many of these contractors provide discounted rates to Environmental Management which means savings for you.

Who is responsible for reporting my incident, and when?

The party who released the material (i.e. the owner/generator, transporter, storage facility manager, etc.) is responsible for reporting the spill.

Who is responsible for the drums that were on my property when I purchased it?

The current owner of the property is responsible for any waste materials. A proper environmental assessment should be conducted prior to the purchase of commercial or residential properties.
