Posted on 11/2/2020 by Roger Marks

After the meeting, the Advisory Board delivered its final recommendations to increase use of electronic hazardous waste manifests among generators and transporters.The Advisory Board focused on ways to make e-Manifests more convenient for generators and transporters, namely by streamlining the electronic signature requirements.

Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.

Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!

Lion provided an excellent introduction to environmental regulations, making the transition to a new career as an EHS specialist less daunting of a task. Drinking from a fire hose when the flow of water is lessened, is much more enjoyable!
