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 WAB specializes in providing our clients with a varitiy of environmental, occupational health, and safety services to support their regulatory compliance efforts.
