What is a small spill According to the ERG?
The ERG identifies small spills as those that involve quantities that are less than 200 liters for liquids and less than 300 kilograms for solids; and large spills than involve quantities that are greater than 200 liters and greater than 300 kilograms of solids.

What is the dot initial isolation distance for a small spill of chlorine?
100 ft
INITIAL ISOLATION AND PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCES: Small spills (involving the release of approximately 52.83 gallons (200 liters) or less) First isolate in all directions: 100 ft (30 m). Then protect persons downwind during the day: 0.2 mi (0.2 km). Then protect persons downwind during the night: 0.8 mi (1.2 km).

What is the initial isolation zone?
The Initial Isolation Zone defines an area SURROUNDING the incident in which persons may be exposed to dangerous (upwind) and life threatening (downwind) concentrations of material.
Where in the ERG can you find initial isolation distances and protective action distances?
The green section contains the table of initial isolation and protective action distances. These distances are useful for protecting people from vapors resulting from spills considered poisonous or toxic if inhaled.
