The HAZWOPER Handbook is a handbook that can be used as a training aid for new hazardous waste workers or for those who need to update their annual refresher training. The HAZWOPER Handbook can also be used as a field guide for those workers who need to reference a particular area within industry standards and practices. The reader can also reference the OSHA Hazwoper standard which is included in the back of the handbook. This handbook covers many topics, it's an easy read, without unnecessary technical jargon. Not only does this handbook cover the training and operational requirements mandated by OSHA, this handbook also covers many topics that other hazwoper books leave out, such as: Environmental regulations, safety program management, energy hazards, most common job hazards, fire behavior, responding to meth labs, responding to terrorist incidents, and much, much, more! This handbook provides you with the necessary information to work safely in the field and to operate as an OSHA compliant hazardous waste worker.

Field technicians and emergency response personnel are often faced with the dangers of flammable, combustible, and chemically unstable materials. Although there are numerous procedures set forth by regulatory agencies like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for effectively and safely dealing with such environmental hazards, up until now there has been no single resource for training in this area. Based on the author's twenty-plus years of field experience, Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Manual is a comprehensive text that covers the complete curriculum requirements set forth by OSHA and HazWOPER. Highly accessible and broad in focus, the book is equally useful as a technical resource for training, a hands-on reference for field operations, and a textbook for environmental courses in a variety of areas. Coverage includes:Methods recommended by professional societies and regulatory agencies including the National Fire Protection Association, OSHA, EPA, and NIOSHPractical examples and assignments in each chapter to supplement the text and enhance usefulness to students.
