OSHA HAZWOPER

OSHA HAZWOPER certified hazmat storage – HAZWOPER, which stands for Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response, is a set of standards established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to protect workers who handle hazardous waste and respond to emergencies involving hazardous substances. These standards cover various aspects of safety, including training, procedures, and personal protective equipment (PPE).

Becoming OSHA HAZWOPER certified for hazmat storage, or any hazardous waste operation, involves a multi-faceted approach as outlined by OSHA’s Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) standard (29 CFR 1910.120).

EPA RCRA

EPA RCRA hazardous waste storage solutions – The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), regulates hazardous waste management from “cradle to grave,” including storage. Storage of hazardous waste is permitted under specific conditions, including accumulation time limits and container requirements.

The RCRA is a comprehensive federal law that sets standards for the management of hazardous waste from “cradle to grave.”

Compliance with RCRA regulations is mandatory for company’s who generate, transports, treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous waste. The “requirements” to be “RCRA compliant” or to operate a facility that manages hazardous waste under RCRA are tied to training, operational procedures, recordkeeping, and permitting, all determined by your generator status.
