The chemical spill portion of the video is about three and a half minutes, the video then goes on to show radioactive and biological spill procedures. Also attached is a reference guide from EHSO for chemical spill clean-up. Remember that chemical waste must be disposed of through EHSO. The UM safe app also has contact information and support for Chemical spills.
