Our COURSE IS UNIQUE IN THAT IT WAS DEVELOPED SO THAT EVERY EMPLOYEE
WILL UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENT RESPONSIBILITIES OF RCRA AND DOT
REGULATIONS. It is our believe that this will provides a better safety
culture for your company.The RCRA sets forth an approach for handling
the volumes of waste generated in the United States each year. Based
on the authority granted by RCRA Subtitle C, EPA developed regulations
for the cradle-to-grave management of hazardous waste. Persons who
produce hazardous waste, called hazardous waste generators, are the
first link in this cradle-to-grave system and they must receive RCRA
training. The RCRA regulations establish basic hazardous waste
management standards for generators. The generator regulations ensure
that hazardous waste is appropriately identified and handled safely to
protect human health and the environment, while minimizing
interference with daily business operations. RCRA training (initial
and refresher) is required for generators of hazardous wastes.
In compliance with U.S. DOT regulations (49 CFR), this DOT training is
for individuals who handle, manage, transport, or ship hazardous
materials/hazardous waste. This includes employees who load, unload,
and handle hazardous materials; select, mark, label, or modify
containers or packaging; prepare materials for shipping; prepare
shipping papers; are responsible for the safety of hazardous materials
during shipment; and vehicle operators. Initial training is required
and a regulatory requirement is that this training be taken once every
3 years
