Federal and California Regulation OSHA HAZWOPER Standard
This is a 3-day, 24-hour, OSHA compliant HAZWOPER classroom training session that meets the initial training requirements for the Federal OSHA HAZWOPER Standard . This 3-day training session is also the first three days of the OSHA 40-Hour HAZWOPER Training course.
The objectives of this course are to meet the Federal OSHA HAZWOPER training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(ii) and 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(iii) for general industry, and 29 CFR 1926.65(e)(3)(ii) and 29 CFR 1926.65(e)(3)(iii) for construction.
This course is for workers occasionally on waste sites for a specific limited task (such as, but not limited to, ground water monitoring, land surveying, or geophysical surveying) and who are unlikely to be exposed over permissible exposure limits and published exposure limits, and workers regularly on site who work in areas which have been monitored and fully characterized indicating that exposures are under permissible exposure limits and published exposure limits where respirators are not necessary, and the characterization indicates that there are no health hazards or the possibility of an emergency developing.
Each student who successfully completes this course will be issued a Fed-OSHA Sample Certificate from Online Training Systems in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.120.
This course is also intended to meet any HAZWOPER training requirements for the EPA and State OSHA regulations. Students will also be mailed a PVC Wallet ID Card with an optional photo.
