2020 New England Chapter Annual Winter Seminar
More than thirty members of the NASF New England Chapter attended a Seminar sponsored by the Chapter on February 6, 2020 at the Courtyard Marriott in Marlborough, Massachusetts to receive their required annual RCRA HazMat and Triennial DOT training. This mandatory training was presented to the membership in a combined joint effort of lead presenter and Chapter Board Member Jeff Mosholder of Newpath LLC and a trio of presenters from HRP Associates out of Albany, New York.
Jeff Mosholder lead off the seminar with a comprehensive RCRA Hazmat training session. This is an annual requirement and can at times be repetitious, but Jeff always manages to peek interest with new facts and updated information for the attendees.
The triennial DOT training was conducted by HRP lead presenter and Senior Project Scientist Alisa Werst accompanied by Regional Manger Jason Beach. Alisa gave an intense fact filled two hour DOT educational training presentation followed by a written test and finally the awarding of Certificates of Completion once the attendees passed the test.
The four hour Seminar was concluded with a presentation by Senior Inspector Roger Booth, also of HRP, who brought attendees up to date on changes and pitfalls of Sara 313 TRI (Toxic Release Inventory) filing requirements. Strong emphasis was placed on the emerging PFAS reporting requirements being added to the coming years data collection and reporting.
This Seminar and other events and educational opportunities offered by the New England Chapter are just another reason to join and actively participate in all that the National Association for Surface Finishing has to offer.
