  • "Understanding Hazwoper"
    PRESENTER'S GUIDE "UNDERSTANDING HAZWOPER" Training for the OSHA HAZARDOUS WASTE OPERATIONS and EMERGENCY RESPONSE (HAZWOPER) REGULATION Quality Safety and Health Products, for Today... and Tomorrow OUTLINE OF MAJOR PROGRAM POINTS OUTLINE OF MAJOR PROGRAM POINTS The following outline summarizes the major points of information presented in the program. The outline can be used to review the program before conducting a classroom session, as well as in preparing to lead a class discussion about the program. In 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate the handling of hazardous waste Afrom cradle to grave". — RCRA covers operations which generate, treat, store or dispose of hazardous waste. In 1980, the EPA issued the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). — Also known as "superfund", CERCLA made provisions for the cleanup of abandoned and uncontrolled hazardous waste sites not covered by RCRA. In 1986, CERCLA was amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA). — SARA provided nine billion dollars to fund hazardous waste cleanup operations. — It also charged OSHA with establishing standards to protect workers on hazardous waste sites. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was created in 1970 as a part of the occupational safety and health act. — This act requires employers to provide "a place of employment free from recognized hazards that are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees." — Congress empowered OSHA to enforce safety standards through inspections, citations and fines. 1 In 1986, when the EPA charged OSHA with the task of protecting HAZMAT workers, OSHA issued the Interim Final Rule for Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response.

  • 2: Lessons from Superfund and RCRA
    Lessons From Superfund and RCRA 2 he United States has had nearly 20 years’ experience with hazardous waste operations at Resource Con- servation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and Superfund sites, Much of this work has involved site characteriza- tionT efforts: attempts to identify the nature of site pollutants and to map their locations, concentrations, and environmental trans- port routes. In addition, emergency removals of contaminants have been carried out at about one-third of all (non-Federal) sites 12 on the National Priorities List (NPL). permanent cleanup ac- tivities and construction projects that usually involve more com- plex and lengthy remediation actions are just getting underway at most sites. Nonetheless, the RCRA-Superfund experience of- fers important lessons about protecting the health and safety of workers engaged in environmental remediation—lessons that are directly applicable to cleanup of the Nuclear Weapons Complex. The RCRA - WORKER PROTECTION ISSUES WITHIN THE Superfund REGULATORY PROCESS experience offers Competition Between Worker Protection and Other Cleanup Priorities important lessons The environmental laws and regulations that drive the goals about protecting and schedules of most environmental cleanup operations do not assign worker health and safety a high priority. Superfund and worker health RCRA regulations and procedures are complicated, and are in- tended to guide employers through the multitude of technical & safety uncertainties and necessary assumptions that are inevitably part of environmental remediation.3-5 Amid the complexities and controversies surrounding site characterization, remedial design, 19 20 I Hazards Ahead: Managing Cleanup Worker Health and Safety at the Nuclear Weapons Complex and cleanup, the information and programs need- investigations of worker protection issues associ- ed to ensure the safety and health of cleanup ated with “enclosures” at hazardous waste sites a workers and emergency responders can be over- high priority.9 shadowed or neglected.

  • EPA Interim Health and Safety Guidelines Related to COVID-19 For
    Interim Health and Safety Guidelines Related to COVID- 19 for Conducting Superfund Site Work – 4/21/2020 The EPA Response Health and Safety Workgroup is composed of safety trained, interested, and experienced responders from across the agency: On-Scene Coordinators (OSC); Special Teams (Environmental Response Team (ERT), Consequence Management Advisory Team (CMAT) , Radiological Emergency Response Team; National Criminal Enforcement Response Team (NCERT) ); Safety, Health and Environmental Program (SHEMP) managers; and members of the Safety and Sustainability Division (SSD). The Mission of the Workgroup is to provide advice, support, and products that ensure a healthy and safe nationally consistent approach to response and removal actions for EPA emergency responders and site workers. The Workgroup was convened by the Office of Land and Emergency Management (OLEM), to develop a consolidated list of safety and health practices to implement during the COVID-19 public health emergency for OSCs, Special Teams, Remedial Project Managers (RPM), Community Involvement Coordinators (CIC), and other EPA site staff and emergency response personnel. EPA recommends that its field contractor personnel follow these practices when conducting site work. These COVID-19 Safety and Health (S&H) Guidelines are not official agency policy, it is a consolidated list of safety and health best practices developed by the OLEM workgroup members in order to provide accurate, timely and consistent safety and health information on topics that may not be adequately

  • Hazards Ahead: Managing Cleanup Worker Health and Safety at the Nuclear Weapons Complex
    Overview and Findings 1 he Manhattan Project-the secret effort to invent and build the first atomic bomb-was accomplished in less than 4 years at a cost of approximately $2 billion.l The project was backed by the resources of America’s largestT and most advanced corporations and engineering fins, and employed the talents of thousands of the world’s best scien- tists, technicians, and workers. A half century later, the institutional descendant of the Man- hattan Project, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), cofronts a new mission: cleaning up the environmental pollution left by cold war nuclear weapons production. This new mission pre- sents DOE with daunting technical and organizational chal- lenges as it strives to revise policies that led to widespread pollu- tion throughout the Nuclear Weapons Complex and to restore contaminated environments to safe conditions, It is estimated that cleanup of environmental contamination from nearly 50 years of nuclear weapons manufacture will cost more than $100 billion and require more than 30 years to com- plete. The cost and length of the cleanup are uncertain because DOE is the true extent of pollution and the means to remedy it areas yet only dimly understood, Some areas of the Weapons Complex responsible for may never be restored to pristine conditions.2 The tasks involved in the cleanup of environmental contami- protecting those nation are unfamiliar to DOE. Indeed, the entire field of hazard- who will do ous waste management and environmental remediation is in its infancy. Methods of characterizing
