Resource Conservation & Recovery Act (RCRA) with DOT Hazmat

Designed for those individuals tasked with managing hazardous waste and complying with generator status as defined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ensuring that the treatment, storage, and disposal of waste is handled properly within the regulatory requirements. This course also applies to those who handle hazardous waste for transportation purposes; transferring from the generator to the disposal facility. This course meets the requirements of the Department of Transportation's 49 CFR 172.704(c)(2) standard, with the focus on providing a hazmat employee with the general provisions of the regulations so that each hazmat employee can recognize and identify hazardous materials, having the knowledge about the specific requirements as they relate to their job functions. In addition, emergency response information, self-protection measures, and accident prevention methods and procedures are discussed. All persons who handle, prepare for shipment, complete documentation, and/or sign the paperwork, or have a responsibility for the hazmat safety of individuals must be trained according to these standards.
