Whenever there is a spill, tell your colleagues or the safety team no matter how small or insignificant the spill appears. In assessing a spill's risks and to obtain advice on cleanup procedures, it always helps to solicit the advice of others. Communication is essential in every situation. A small spill can result in a harmful exposure to you or others or can result in hazards that are not obvious; therefore, notification of regulatory officials may be required.
