Regional Climate Training for RCRA Permitting and Hazardous Waste Cleanup: Northeast/Mid-Atlantic Regions

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery (ORCR) is hosting a training on integrating climate change adaptation into the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) permitting and hazardous waste cleanup process. Focusing on EPA Regions 1, 2, and 3, the training will cover: 
  • The regional climate risks to RCRA facilities 
  • The underlying authorities requiring consideration of climate change in the RCRA permitting and hazardous waste cleanup process
  • The process for conducting a climate vulnerability screening and/or a climate vulnerability assessment (CVA) at a RCRA facility 
  • Optional climate adaptation measures appropriate for RCRA permitting and hazardous waste facilities
This virtual event will feature case studies and interactive activities to help participants engage with best practices for building climate resilience through the RCRA permitting and hazardous waste cleanup process. This is the third offering in a four-part training series. The final training will be held for the South/Southeast Region on Thursday, January 9, 2025, from 1:30-3:30 PM ET.
