HAZWOPER 8-Hour Annual Refresher - RCRA TSD Operations

8 hour(s) (TimeBoost® option available as directed by employer)
Cost: $95 per person

Do You Need to Take the HAZWOPER 8-Hour Annual Refresher – RCRA TSD Operations Course?



The RCRA TSD Operations refresher course is designed for individuals working at a RCRA Treatment Storage and Disposal Facility (TSDF). OSHA regulations require annual training for anyone certified to respond to incidental releases of hazardous materials, and the EPA requires refresher training for generators of RCRA hazardous waste.



This training is to recertify individuals who will be engaged in Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) work at Treatment, Storage, and Disposal (TSD) facilities in compliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulation 29 CFR 1910.120.



Note that this course satisfies a different set of regulatory requirements than our RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator course. The U.S. EPA requires training for generators of RCRA hazardous waste, and the hazardous waste generator course is vastly different and does not include certification to respond to releases of hazardous waste to the environment.

Physical and On Site Requirements

OSHA-approved Plan States must maintain standards that are at least as stringent as the Federal HAZWOPER training regimen and may have additional training requirements of their own.

While this training course is very comprehensive, we highly recommend that additional site-specific training be taken for certain hazardous materials that may be encountered at different sites. OSHA regulations require site-specific training as opposed to attending a generic public seminar class for hands on training with PPE. This means students will train on the actual equipment they will be using as employees and not just a generic piece of equipment.
