Corporate Training By Zack Academy - New York Hazardous Waste Management Webcast

Specifically, this course instructs upon the classification, labeling, and storage of hazardous waste as well as recordkeeping and management of waste production. This course is a live webcast that is presented completely online. 

If you generate hazardous waste in New York, you must comply with both Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and New York Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) regulations. The fines for unlawful waste discharge are steep and the repercussions for the environment are severe. It's important for your facility to have a proper waste management protocol in order to avoid legal recourse.

This New York Hazardous Waste Management Webcast explains all of the state and federal regulations that a waste management professional needs to know in order to stay in compliance. Students will learn how to properly identify hazardous wastes, how to store them, how to manage a waste system, and the legal reporting required. By the end of this course, students will have the knowledge necessary to implement their own waste management system in a facility.
