DOT Carrier Regulations
4.5.13.2 Five major regulator programs have specific training
requirements. For hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities
(TSDFs) a training program is required under 40 CFR 264.16 and 40 CFR 265.16.
For employees of contractors involved in Superfund cleanups, RCRA TSDF
operations, spill response teams and first responders, etc., the SARA requires
that OSHA develop a set of regulations that includes employee training. These
training regulations can be found in 29 CFR 1910.120.
4.5.13.3 OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requires that a
training program be developed for employees exposed to hazardous chemicals. The
training requirements can be found in 29 CFR 1910.1200(h).
4.5.13.4 Additional training is required under the Clean Water Act.
The Best Management Plan (BMP) requirements under 40 CFR 125 and the Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure requirements under 40 CFR 151 both have
training provisions.
4.5.13.5 Three training programs are specified through SARA. These
courses are designed to provide workers with the ability to complete their tasks
safely, while minimizing health risks to themselves and to others. The first
training program is intended to provide personnel exposed to hazardous
substances while working on RCRA and CERCLA initiated projects. This program
provides all personnel with 40 h of initial classroom training as well as 3 days
of on-the-job training, and 8 h of annual refresher training. All of the
trainers must have a higher degree of training than that of what they are to
teach. This first training program also requires that supervisors and managers
have 8 h of specialized training on managing operations.
