Abstract

Both the official course outline and course syllabus includes relative content related to the Occupational, Health and Safety Act – Hazardous Waste Operation and Emergency Response Standard (29 CRF 1910.120) to provide a comprehensive instruction and training into the health and safety planning and procedures associated with the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OSHA) hazardous waste operator and emergency response (HAZWOPER) standard including: 1. uncontrolled hazardous waste site work; 2. hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facilities (TSDFs) operations; and 3. emergency preparedness and responses to hazardous materials incidents and releases. To assure comprehensive understanding prerequisite courses include: CHEM - 1010 Introduction to Inorganic Chemistry, or higher and EHST - 1301 Introduction to Environmental Technology, or MET - 1100 Technology Orientation, or CNST - 1281 Construction Engineering Orientation). This course is designed to meet training requirements for the “40 hour” off-site training portion of 29 CFR 1910.120 (the “HAZWOPER” standard) so as to provide OSHA certificate of training to students who completed the course and satisfactorily demonstrate core competencies associated with the standard. This two (2) credit hour lecture course offered during one week within the fall and spring semesters requires students possess a general understanding of environmental, health and safety related issues related to hazardous chemical awareness, response and planning.
