- Regulations include the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (1976), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (1980), and others
Classification of Hazardous Materials
- Classification of hazardous materials, including hazardous waste operations, planning, and organization, is critical
- Training and medical programs are also essential components of hazardous materials management
Hazardous Waste Operations
- Hazardous waste operations, including site characterization, planning, and organization, are vital
- Training and medical programs are also essential components of hazardous waste operations
Key Regulations Governing Hazardous Materials and Waste
- Key regulations governing hazardous materials and waste, including the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (1976), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (1980), and others, are essential to understand
- Regulations also include the Toxic Substances Control Act (1976), Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (1986), and others
Hazard Communication Standard
- Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) is a crucial regulation governing hazardous materials and waste
- The standard covers the purpose, scope, and application of hazard communication, as well as written hazard communication standards, labels, and other forms of warning### Safety Theories and Models
