What does the updated OSHA silica regulation mean for spill control?

At my facility, many areas have small leaks and drips outdoors that represent either an environmental risk or a slip, trip and fall hazard due to the slick surface they create. When dealing with these small hydrocarbon spills in the rain or on waters, are there any products or solutions that absorb the oil while allowing clean water to filter through, or other solutions to keep my employees safe?

Does the color of an absorbent tell you anything about what it will safely absorb?

What is the difference between active and passive spill containment?
