Press Release Summary: When workers handle hazardous waste, ship hazardous materials, or work in certain areas exposed to storm water, training is not just a good idea, it's the law.

In addition, EPA's Multi-Sector General Permit requires training for all employees who work in areas where industrial materials or construction activities are exposed to storm water, and for all employees responsible for implementing activities in their storm water pollution prevention plan.
