Do You Need to Take the 24-Hour HAZWOPER – RCRA TSD Operations Course?



The 24-Hour HAZWOPER – RCRA TSD Operations course is designed for any individuals who will be working in an area defined as a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Treatment Storage or Disposal (TSD) facility.



This course is intended for RCRA TSD site personnel, e.g., supervisors, environmental professionals, workers, decon personnel, etc. The initial training for new employees exposed to health hazards or hazardous substances at TSD facilities must be 24 hours.

Any employer with a hazardous waste storage area is required to provide training under 29 CFR 1910.120 (p)(8) or (q).



Initial training requires 24 hours of coursework while refresher training requires 8 hours annually. OSHA requires the 24-hour course will take a minimum of 24 hours of actual study time. Anything less will not comply with the OSHA standard. Our course allows you to login and logout at any time increment in order to fit your schedule. Training must be incorporated into the employer’s safety and health program.

FAQS

Did you know that there are at least 3 different 24-hour HAZWOPER courses? OSHA requires that employers adequately train their employees for any job. Please be sure you get the right HAZWOPER Training for the right job.

The RCRA corrective action process consists of three primary activities: characterizing the release, selecting a remedy from identified alternatives, and implementing the selected remedy until the desired remediation goals are achieved. To design a process capable of collecting the information necessary to achieve these primary objectives, the HAZWOPER employer relies not only on this guidance document but others prepared by the EPA which describe all aspects of the corrective action process.

Plan States (approved by U.S. OSHA) must have standards at least as stringent as the Federal HAZWOPER training requirements. These Plan States may have additional training requirements.
