EPCRA Planning and Reporting Manager
The annual reporting requirements of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) are complex, with several sections of the law establishing different reporting threshold calculations and annual reporting requirements. Almost all facilities that store more than 10,000 pounds of any hazardous material are subject to certain EPCRA regulations.
The EPCRA Planning and Reporting Manager™ co...
The EPCRA Planning and Reporting Manager™ course was developed for environmental professionals, managers, and others responsible for environmental reporting of hazardous materials and substances stored, processed, or used on their facilities.
The course covers current EPCRA applicability and reporting requirements, including multiple chemical lists, applicability thresholds, required reporting, deadlines, available reporting tools, and mandatory documentation. Practical applications of the requirements are provided for various industry sectors and for Federal agencies. Illustrative scenarios are presented on industrial and Federal agency reporting under EPCRA Section 313 to provide a clear understanding of where to focus attention and how to apply the complex guidance of the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) requirements to actual facility operations.
Taking this course will greatly increase your confidence level by having identified all of the applicable EPCRA requirements for your organization and gaining an understanding how to compile and submit required reporting. You will receive bound course handout materials, which becomes a useful desk book for later reference.
