RCRA Brownbag Series,“PCBs 101” webinar on Feb. 3rd at 1 pm

Posted on by

RCRA Brownbag Series, which includes a “PCBs 101” webinar on Feb 3rd at 1 pm eastern. It will be open to EPA and states and will be available on the Clu-in site thereafter.

The purpose of the RCRA Expert Brownbag series is to capture and share institutional knowledge and expertise relevant to those implementing the RCRA program. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) can be found at a variety of sites and the PCB cleanup and disposal requirements are different from RCRA requirements in many critical ways. This webinar will introduce the PCB regulations, in particular the cleanup and disposal requirements for PCBs, which fall under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA). The webinar will also cover where to go for more information, a case study, and how to avoid some common pitfalls

Feel free to register (https://clu-in.org/conf/tio/RCRAExpert/) and forward to others you think would find it useful.
