Récupération des eaux de décontamination. Dans la mesure du possible, il faut récupérer les eaux de décontamination. Cependant, cette opération ne doit pas retarder les opérations de sauvetage. Par définition, le contaminant contenu dans ces eaux est très dilué. Dans la plupart des cas, cette dilution sera suffisante pour rendre le contaminant inoffensif. Un monitoring des concentrations dans l'eau devra être fait pour s'assurer de son innocuité.
