The Training outlined in this brochure is designed
to meet the requirements for:
U.S. & State Departments of Transportation (Section 172.700, 49 CFR)
State and Federal DOT regulations require each shipper, generator,
carrier and transporter to instruct and test all company officials,
employees or agents on the applicable hazardous materials regulations
pertaining to their job functions and contact with hazardous materials
and substances on a triennial basis.
U.S. & State Environmental Protection Agencies
(Part 262 and 265.16, 40 CFR)
State and Federal EPA regulations require each generator and
owner/operator of a TSD Facility to ensure that all employees engaged in
any activity involving hazardous waste successfully complete a training
program on the applicable DOT, OSHA and EPA regulations. This
requirement must be carried out on an annual basis.
Occupational Safety & Health Administration
(Sections 1910.120, 1910.1200, 29 CFR)
In addition to the HAZARD DETERMINATION & COMMUNICATION training
requirement for each person exposed to Hazardous Substances in a
workplace, OSHA has mandated under CERCLA/SARA training to be carried
out for generators, TSD Facilities and Emergency Response personnel on
hazardous waste operations and emergency response.
Who Should Attend?
- Managers and company personnel responsible for compliance with
the DOT/EPA/OSHA regulations for hazardous materials, substances,
chemicals or waste.
- Managers and company personnel who must instruct others on
applicable DOT/EPA/OSHA regulations.
- Company hazmat employees who need either the required initial or
annual update training.

 The “Critical Interface” Problem
Compliance may become clearer when the “INTERFACE” is laid out as per
the chart. For example, when one of the 50,000 plus Hazardous Materials
is in transportation, it is subject to the DOT Regulations in 49 CFR.
When used in-plant, it now is subject to the OSHA Regulations in 29 CFR.
When it no longer has a value and will be discarded, it is subject to
the joint DOT/EPA/OSHA Regulations in 49/ 40/29 CFRs. If, at any time in
either of these three areas, it is released or discharged from its
container into the environment in an “RQ” quantity, and is not
recovered, it is now a Hazardous Substance and is subject to the
reporting responsibilities of the Clean Water Act, the Hazardous
Materials Transportation Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act, and SARA/Title III. Understanding these
interfaces is one of the objectives of the seminar.
