How EPA Plans to Increase e-Manifest Use

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.

In a document released in October 2020, EPA responds to each of the Advisory Board’s recommendations to increase use of e-Manifests.

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.

The workshop covered a lot of information without being too overwhelming. Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.

Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.
