Fuel spills should be reported for which type of proper action?

Reporting fuel spills is crucial for ensuring safety and environmental protection at the airport. The correct action involves proper removal and disposal of the spilled fuel to mitigate hazard exposure to personnel, passengers, and the environment. Promptly reporting a spill ensures that trained personnel can respond quickly to contain and clean up the spill, minimizing its impact.

While notifying airport operations, documenting incidents, and funding for airport projects are also important in their own rights, they do not directly address the immediate needs of safety and environmental protection that arise from a fuel spill. Proper removal and disposal are the necessary actions to prevent further risk and adhere to environmental regulations. This makes it the most critical step to take when a fuel spill occurs.
