Water and Wastes News

CARY, N.C. (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- When workers handle hazardous waste or ship hazardous materials, training is not just a good idea, it's the law, says Environmental Resource Center. 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.

Environmental Resource Center, the leading provider of environmental and safety training, will present the mandatory training in Williamsburg at the Hilton Garden Inn on November 17-19.

Hazardous Waste Management: The Complete Course will be taught on November 17 and 18.

DOT Hazardous Materials Training: The Complete Course will be taught on November 19 at the same location.

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.
