Which of the following may help prevent inadvertent spillage?
To help prevent inadvertent spillage, several measures can be taken:
Properly Sealed Containers: Ensure that all containers are securely closed and sealed to prevent leaks.
Use of Spill Trays: Place containers in spill trays or secondary containment units to catch any leaks or spills.
Careful Handling: Handle containers with care, especially when transporting them, to avoid tipping or dropping.
Appropriate Storage: Store liquids on lower shelves or in areas where they are less likely to be knocked over.
Spill-Resistant Lids: Use containers with spill-resistant lids or caps designed to prevent leaks even if the container is knocked over.
Avoid Overfilling: Do not overfill containers; leave enough space to prevent overflow when the container is handled or moved.
These measures can help reduce the risk of spillage and ensure a safer environment.
To prevent inadvertent spillage:
- Always check to make sure you are using the correct network for the level of data
- Do NOT use a classified network for unclassified work. Processing unclassified
information on a classified network:
o Can unnecessarily consume mission-essential bandwidth
o May illegally shield information from disclosure under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA)
o Creates a danger of spillage when attempting to remove the information to an
unclassified media or hard copy - Be aware of classification markings and all handling caveats
- Follow procedures for transferring data to and from outside agency and nonGovernment networks, including referring vendors making solicitations to
appropriate personnel - Label all files, removable media, and subject headers with appropriate classification
markings
