quiz
what is the first step to do in the event of an uncontainable or extremely dangerous spill?
a. call emergency personnel.
b. provide safety data sheets to responders.
c. sound the building fire alarm, and then evacuate.
d. notify others in the area.

Explanation:

In case of an uncontainable or extremely dangerous spill, the first priority is to ensure the safety of people in the area. Notifying others allows them to take appropriate action to protect themselves. Calling emergency personnel (A) is important but not the first - step as you need to alert those nearby first. Providing safety data sheets (B) is something that can be done later. Sounding the building fire alarm (C) may not be appropriate for all types of spills and is not the initial action compared to notifying others.

Answer:

D. Notify others in the area.
