Cleanup

The objective of each spill cleanup should be to return the site to pre-spill or background conditions. If the cleanup will take no more than 180 days, the responsible party may elect to clean up a spill under the Texas Risk Reduction Program rule, but must perform an Affected Property Assessment and submit an Affected Property Assessment Report (APAR) to the appropriate TCEQ regional office for approval to clean up to TRRP standards rather than pre-spill or background conditions.
