Hazwoper Training - 24 Hour Hazwoper
Our Hazwoper training course fulfills your requirements for hazwoper certification under 29 CFR, Part 1910.120 (e), or other applicable state regulations for certification to the 24-hour Occasional Site Worker level. This course is for hazardous waste occasional site workers which require that the worker receives a minimum of 24 hours of instruction off the site, and a minimum of one day actual field experience under the direct supervision of a trained experienced supervisor. Our 24 hour hazwoper training meets the 24 hours of instruction off the site, and we recommend as per industry standard that the student receives the additional day of field experience from their employer or potential employer along with a proper medical evaluation. According to the 29 CFR 1910.120 (e)(3)(ii); this OSHA training course is intended for workers on site only occasionally for a specific limited task such as, but not limited to, ground water monitoring, land surveying, or geophysical surveying and who are unlikely to be exposed over permissible exposure limits and published exposure limits.
(In order to maintain your initial Hazwoper 24 Hour (Occasional Site Worker) Certifications, 8 Hours of Annual Refresher Training is required)
Hazwoper Refresher - 8 Hr Annual Refresher Course
Our Hazwoper refresher course meets the requirements outlined in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 for 8 (eight) hours of annual refresher training for workers at hazardous waste sites. Our hazwoper refresher course is designed for general site workers who remove hazardous waste or who are exposed or potentially exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards. Our hazwoper refresher is comprised of nine sections covering topics pertaining to workplace hazards associated with Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER). Topics include HAZWOPER regulations, Site Characterization, Toxicology, Hazard Recognition, Personal Protective Equipment, Decontamination, Medical Surveillance, Confined Space Entry and Emergency Procedures. Upon successful completion of the course you will receive a certificate of completion which is accepted by OSHA as documentation of training.
Hazwoper Training Packages
Package :40 Hour Hazwoper Plus The Clean Water Act
This package is designed to provide personnel with the relevant training and certifications that may be needed to participate in the clean\up efforts. This package consists of the 40 Hour Hazwoper Course and The Clean Water Act course.
- 40 Hour Hazwoper: This course covers broad issues pertaining to the hazard recognition at work sites. OSHA has developed the HAZWOPER program to protect the workers working at hazardous sites and devised extensive regulations to ensure their safety and health. This course, while identifying different types of hazards, also suggests possible precautions and protective measures to reduce or eliminate hazards at the work place.
- The Clean Water Act (CWA) establishes the basic structure for regulating discharges of pollutants into the waters of the United States and regulating quality standards for surface waters. The basis of the CWA was enacted in 1948 and was called the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, but the Act was significantly reorganized and expanded in 1972. "Clean Water Act" became the Act's common name with amendments in 1977. Under the CWA, EPA has implemented pollution control programs such as setting wastewater standards for industry. We have also set water quality standards for all contaminants in surface waters. The CWA made it unlawful to discharge any pollutant from a point source into navigable waters, unless a permit was obtained. EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program controls discharges. Point sources are discrete conveyances such as pipes or man-made ditches. Individual homes that are connected to a municipal system, use a septic system, or do not have a surface discharge do not need an NPDES permit; however, industrial, municipal, and other facilities must obtain permits if their discharges go directly to surface waters.
