It was not clear at time of inspection what hazardous waste training was being provided to employees. Inspector was provided with different training modules for different time periods but employees were not able to identify who had received the training, and what trainings were applicable to theirjob functions. Lack of training was evident during the inspection when the same hazardous waste stream was identified differently on hazardous waste labels or not at all. At one point during the inspection when looking at an incomplete hazardous waste label, a comment was made by Darryl Gardner, "these guys don't really know what they're doing". Personnel who handle hazardous waste shall be trained within six months of assignment and take part in an annual review of the initial training received. At a minimum, the training program shall be designed to ensure that facility personnel are able to respond effectively to emergencies by familiarizing them with emergency procedures, emergency equipment, and emergency systems, including where applicable: 1. procedures for using, inspecting, repairing, and replacing facility emergency and monitoring equipment; 2. key parameters for automatic waste feed cut-off systems; 3. communications or alarm systems; 4. response to fires or explosions; 5. response to ground-water contamination incidents; and 6. shutdown of operations. The owner or operator shall maintain the following documents and records at the facility: 1. the job title for each position at the facility related to hazardous waste management, and the name of each employee filling each job; 2. written job description for each position listed above; 3. written description of the type and amount of both introductory and continuing training that will be given to each person filing positions listed above; 4. records that document that the training has been given to and completed by facility personnel. Training records on current employees shall be kept until closure of the facility. Training records on former employees shall be kept for at least three years from the date the employee last worked at the facility. Immediately provide employees with initial or refresher hazardous waste training. Submit a copy of the roster and the syllabus to the EHD. This is a Class II violation.
