When reporting a pesticide spill during transport, you should contact which center?

When a pesticide spill happens during transport, the official reporting path is to contact the Spills Action Centre, which operates for the Director under the Pesticides Act. This centre is the centralized point for reporting spills and coordinating the regulatory response, immediate safety guidance, and any required cleanup actions. Reaching the Spills Action Centre ensures the incident is documented, the right agencies are alerted, and proper procedures are followed to protect people and the environment. Local police or generic hotlines aren’t the designated regulatory reporting channel for spills; the Spills Action Centre handles this under the authority of the Pesticides Act.
