Campus/Lab Spill Response?

[Dave Colvin <ppddgc@julian.uwo.ca>]

I would be interested in knowing how other Universities/Colleges deal with
spill response on their campuses.  

We are going to be preplanning with our local fire department and they
train to NFPA 472 standards.  Is that considered overkill for the small
quantities that we deal with? How many universities have inhouse spill
teams? contractors? leave it to the fire dept? What standards are used in
your training?

Any insights would be helpful.

Dave.
