Hazardous Waste TODAY for Large Quantity Generators (LQG)

Hazardous waste can cause substantial damage to people and the environment, and therefore must be handled and disposed of properly. This training focuses on the revisions made for Large Quantity Generators (LQG) through the Resource, Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

Classifying the hazardous waste, its dangers, and types is the first important point covered in this course. Workers are usually familiar with the way the EPA regulates generators, their waste and managing containers. This training has updated information on these topics and is crucial for those working at a LQG. Time limits on accumulation, and updated rules on accumulation are also demonstrated.

The instructional video gives detailed instruction on how to manage hazardous waste in a LQG. The video also shows how to properly transport hazardous waste, and prepare for emergencies. Working with Hazardous waste can be dangerous for workers and the environment, and this training prepares workers to safely and competently work with hazardous wastes according to EPA regulations.
