The Hazmat Team was requested to stand by during the recovery operation of an overturned semi tanker that contained a full load of commercial grade herbicide. Due to the damaged and compromised vessel, the Hazmat Team stood by while recovery crews worked to upright the truck. Luckily, no product was spilled and no spill containment measures from the Hazmat Team was needed.
