October
21, 2009 – When workers handle hazardous waste or ship hazardous
materials, training is not just a good idea, it’s the law.
According to the EPA, workers who handle hazardous waste must
be trained annually, and the federal DOT requires that workers
involved in the shipment of hazardous materials be trained at
least every three years. In addition, SARA Title III (Emergency
Planning and Community Right-To-Know) requires you to inform your
surrounding community about your facility's hazardous substances
and releases - accidental and permitted.
DOT
and RCRA Annual Update and Refresher course is the perfect way
to meet both your annual review and DOT 49 CFR recurrent training
requirements as well as learn about new requirements that have
been enacted over the past year. The SARA Title III program provides
you with a complete understanding of what this law requires as
well as detailed instructions on how to ensure your facility is
in compliance. A clear explanation of your reporting requirements
under Title III is provided so you will understand when and how
to complete the Tier II, and Toxic Chemical Release (Form R) inventory
report forms.
Environmental
Resource Center, the leading provider of environmental and safety
training, will present the mandatory training in the Ramada -
Atlanta Airport Conference on November 10 and 11, 2009. Classes
begin at 8am and end at 5pm each day.
DOT
and RCRA Annual Update and Refresher will be taught on November
10. SARA Title III will be taught on November 11 at the same location.
Registration for the mandatory
training is available by calling 800-537-2372 or at

Now
in its 28th year, Environmental Resource Center trains not only
thousands of industry personnel every year, the company also trains
personnel from most of the State and Federal agencies that enforce
the regulations.
