The proper management of solid and hazardous waste presents a challenge to many organizations due to the complexity of Federal and State regulations that govern this activity. These regulations offer the greatest potential for non-compliance as evidenced by the high number and frequency of violation notices issued by regulatory agencies. Organizations that are affected by these regulations range in size and service offerings and include businesses such as auto dealerships, dry cleaners, transporters (truck, rail, pipeline, etc) up to, and including, large petrochemical complexes.

What are the benefits of knowing the basics of these regulations? Providing basic training to those employees who produce, store, handle or transport hazardous waste can substantially diminish the risk of non-compliance for any company or organization. These benefits include:

Recognition of what is a regulated solid or hazardous waste

Reduced personal and company liability risk exposure

Reduced costs for handling and disposal

Reduced risk and clean-up cost from spills and leaks to ground or surface waters
Cost effective inspections and record keeping procedures

Credible relationships with regulatory agencies

Reviewing your current waste management program and identifying
observed deficiencies (gap analysis)
Conducting a mock compliance audit of your waste management program

Updating procedures manuals
