[Histonet] Competancies for handling hazardous material

[Podawiltz, Thomas]

We did a self audit about three or four years ago. My area is considered a small waste storage area and yes there is required training. In New Hampshire, we can get that training through the state.

Rae

We have, you need standard training, but the individuals who inspected our lab did not mention compentances.  But our inspection happened because we needed to switch from a conditionally exempt small quantity generator to a small quantitiy generator and we then needed to register with the state, etc.  They primarily focused on our waste streams and what chemicals were in the lab.  I'm not at work right now, but I'll check tomorrow to see if I have anything that I can share with you.

Has anyone been inspected by the EPA regarding removal of hazardous
chemicals?  It came up in a safety meeting that I should have training and
competencies (beyond general safety training and PPE) for pouring xylene
from staining dishes and processors into accumulation containers.
