Who pays for chemical cleanup in Oregon?

The person or business that caused a spill is often responsible, and owners usually carry the cost on their own property. In a rental, the lease and local law decide. Some teams offer payment plans.

What should I do first after a chemical spill?

Get everyone away from the area, including pets. Call 911 if anyone is in danger, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Do not touch unknown containers or try to wash a spill away. Then call a cleanup team for next steps.
