The stakes are high. You can't afford to make a wrong move in hazardous waste manage- ment. That's why the California Environmental Protection Agency created Compliance School. Compliance School offers affordable basic training to help facilities achieve and maintain compliance with state hazardous waste laws and regula- tions. The curriculum focuses on hands-on training, review of Califor- nia environmental regulatory requirements and discussion. The emphasis is on "How to Comply," not "Everything You Wanted to Know About Hazardous Waste." Compliance School offers instruction about hazardous waste management by experienced instructors. Partici- pants learn through a number of real world, practical exercises. Sample formats of some required documents are reviewed, including contingency plans, training plans, inspection schedules, logs and training records. Compliance School's materials cover basic concepts and provide refer- ences for students to use to learn more. Who should attend? Hazardous waste generators, the general public and governmental agency staff are eligible to attend Compliance School training mod- ules. Owner/operators and workers at non-RCRA (Resource Conservation Recovery Act) on-site treatment facilities are encouraged to attend. Personnel from facilities with minor violations of hazardous waste management law may be referred, through a settlement, to attend Compliance School as an alternative to some or all of the penalty. What does it cost? Cost for each of the four generator modules is $100. The Tiered Permit- ting Facility Module is $150. Work- book and exam fees are additional. Class size is limited to 18 students.
