In the past, there were many different ways to determine the hazards of a chemical and many different ways to communicate those hazards. This led to confusion and an increased risk from working with hazardous chemicals. To help reduce this confusion, the United Nations created a global system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labeling of chemicals. This standard is known as the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, or GHS. This course describes hazardous chemical risks, the goal of GHS, safety data sheets, and chemical labels.

Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring silicate mineral fibers that have been used extensively in thermal insulation products, building materials, and vehicle brakes and clutches. Despite many of its desired unique properties in commercial and industrial uses, it has been determined that sustained exposure to elevated concentrations of airborne asbestos can lead to serious and potentially fatal health conditions. Some of these conditions can take 20 years or more to develop, therefore early detection and avoidance of asbestos is vital. This interactive online course describes what asbestos is and the hazards it presents.

The mold remediation industry is expected to follow the “Standard of Care”. Who defines what that is? Where can it be found? Who is the enforcer? Part 2 of this course answers those questions, making clear how each contractor can live up to those expectations with each project while reducing their risk of legal exposure.
Part 3 of this course examines the reasons for testing, the choices available, and the correct methods to collectively provide meaningful and accurate information to the remediation team. A combination of both science and art in the field and lab, you will learn how to sort through those sampling and analysis options and confidently describe why they are the best alternatives for each project.
Part 4 of this course was developed to help assessors and remediators who are trying to comply with requirements in Florida’s new law and regulation, specifically rule 61-31.701. Minimum Standards and Practices for Mold Assessors, and Florida’s rule 61-31.702. Minimum Standards and Practices for Mold Remediators. These rules require that certain reports are to be written by mold assessors and mold remediators over the course of the assessment and remediation. While the rule specifies certain information that must be in these reports, the rule does not specify the format, or give you examples on how to write these reports. This course was created to fill that gap.
Part 5 of this course studies the various forms of water intrusion; the physics of how it happens; its effects on building systems and materials; and ways to understand it, avoid it, and remedy it.

Radiofrequency (RF) radiation is the transmission of energy by electromagnetic radio waves or microwaves. You can’t see it, smell it, hear it, or touch it, but the more you know about RF radiation, the better you will be at managing operations that produce it, and reducing the risks associated with it. Low levels of exposure to RF radiation have not been shown to be harmful, but prolonged exposure to very high levels of RF radiation can burn human tissue. No links have been proven between exposure to RF radiation and more severe health effects, like cancer or reproductive defects. Telecommunication and radar transmitters can produce high-intensity RF radiation environments that are potentially hazardous to anyone operating and maintaining this equipment. This course is designed to provide a general overview and understanding of the hazards associated with radiofrequency radiation.

Crystalline silica is a form of silicon dioxide which occurs naturally in the Earth’s crust. When it is broken up by high energy activities into small airborne respirable particles, it can cause serious health hazards when inhaled. The symptoms caused by inhalation may not be immediately apparent. It is critical that individuals working around crystalline silica are knowledgeable of its physical properties, understand its safety risks, and know how to effectively avoid exposure. With the proper protective measures, training, and PPE, exposure to respirable crystalline silica can be reduced to the point that it is no longer a health threat to those who must work around it.

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) was passed by congress in 1976 to manage hazardous wastes. RCRA regulations apply to any company that generates, transports, treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous waste. Some hazardous wastes can be safely recycled. Recycling is an excellent way to manage hazardous waste if it can be done legitimately because recycling can avoid environmental hazards and protect natural resources. Most hazardous waste that is recycled is still subject to the full hazardous waste regulations, but some materials are exempt or subject to special regulations. Recycling facilities are not subject to hazardous waste regulations except when storing in containers or tanks prior to recycling. Recycled materials fall into a special category of waste. The regulations for recycling hazardous waste depend on the material and the recycling process.

Stormwater runoff is the result of precipitation created by rain or snowmelt flowing over any exposed surface, such as equipment, roofs, roads, and pastures. As the water flows over urbanized and industrial areas it has the potential to pick up a number of contaminants like oil, sediment, chemicals, and litter. This water is then transported to nearby waterways. Polluted stormwater draining from urbanized areas is one of the leading causes of water pollution in lakes, streams, and oceans. This course describes the legal provisions related to stormwater pollution prevention as well as structural and operational best management practices at facilities.
