Handling the cleanup and remediation of land areas affected by oil spills involves a systematic and multi-faceted approach. First, responders must assess the extent and severity of the contamination through site surveys and soil testing. They use appropriate protective gear and equipment during cleanup to avoid exposure.

After cleanup, restoration efforts include replanting vegetation and implementing erosion control measures to stabilize the soil. Monitoring and follow-up assessments ensure the effectiveness of remediation efforts. Collaboration between
