The Danger Doesn’t End When the Fire Does
Even after the flames are out, toxic waste lingers in the air, soil, and water—posing serious health risks to communities.
Safe Cleanup Matters
Without proper solutions, these pollutants remain in our environment, impacting health and safety long after the fire is gone. Any steps we take to reduce these harmful elements contribute to better health and environmental protection.
Let’s Protect LA Together
Sustainable cleanup solutions can make a real difference. Learn how we can help reduce toxic exposure and support a safer, healthier recovery for our communities.
Community Concerns for Fire Cleanup
- Toxic Exposure Risks – Residents fear exposure to hazardous ash, VOCs, asbestos, lead, and other toxins left behind from burned structures, electronics, and industrial sites.
- Proper Disposal of Hazardous Debris – Concerns over where and how debris should be disposed of to prevent pollution. Some fear illegal dumping or improper disposal in landfills.
- Water Contamination During Cleanup – Spraying debris with water alone could lead to contaminated runoff reaching storm drains, rivers, and drinking water supplies.
- Airborne Contaminants During Debris Removal – Dust and VOCs can become airborne again when moving or disturbing debris, putting nearby communities at risk.
- Post-Cleanup Soil & Water Testing – Is there proper environmental testing after cleanup to ensure the land and water are safe for rebuilding?
- Use of Safe & Effective Suppressants – People worry about whether the chemicals used to control airborne toxins are eco-friendly and non-toxic or if they create new environmental hazards.
Using GTS-VOC Suppressant for VOC's
Prepare Your Mixture
Spray the Area Before Cleanup Begins
Spray the Area Before Cleanup Begins
- Mix GTS-VOC Suppressant with water at a 10:1 ratio (10 parts water, 1 part suppressant).
- Shake or stir well to ensure even dilution.
- In a Hudson sprayer, spray bottle, or other spray equipment.
