Spill prevention, reporting, and cleanup are integrated into the landfill's monthly and weekly safety/training meetings. Landfill employees are made aware of the most common source of surface spills, and how to help prevent those occurrences. The importance of reporting significant hazardous or nonhazardous liquid spills is covered. Storm water awareness and the importance of keeping storm water clean are integrated onto regular staff meetings. The load checking program is explained in detail to all site personnel who are involved with the inspection of waste, including the scalehouse attendant, load inspectors, transfer station workers, and equipment operators. These employees also attend a 24-hour hazardous waste operation and safety course and an annual refresher course. The course emphasizes familiarity with containers and labels typically used for hazardous waste and other materials. All new employees are enrolled in the course at the earliest available class after they are hired. Specific emergency response and evacuation procedures for all Forward Landfill employees and members of the emergency response team are covered in the training sessions conducted at the site throughout the year.
