2026 NENASF Annual RCRA and Triennial DOT HAZMAT Seminar
Once again, the NASF New England Chapter was able to offer a mandatory annual RCRA and triennial DOT training Seminar as a complimentary benefit by being a dues-paying member of the New England Chapter. Thirty-two attendees were present for the Seminar sponsored by the Chapter in conjunction with HRP Associates on May13, 2026 at the Courtyard Marriott in Marlborough, Massachusetts. The instructor for this four-hour Seminar was Bryan Sherman, Environmental Health and Safety Project Manager for HRP Associates out of their Clifton Park, New York office.
The first two-hour session of the Seminar was devoted to the required Annual RCRA HazMat training. This session was a very detailed and intense training exercise with strong emphasis on possible pitfalls of incorrect hazardous waste handling and documentation. The session was concluded with a written competency test which is required prior to awarding of Certificates of Completion by HRP for the RCRA Training.
The second two-hour segment of the Seminar was the mandatory triennial DOT training session. Bryan again gave an intense fact filled two-hour DOT educational training course which was also followed by a written competency test as required by the DOT before Certificates of Completion could be issued by HRP Associates as certified instructors.
This Seminar, which again was offered at no cost to the NENASF members, along with other events and educational opportunities offered by the New England Chapter, are just another reason to join and actively participate in all that local Chapter membership in the National Association for Surface Finishing has to offer. Thanks to all participants for allowing events like this to happen, and a special shout out to HRP Associates for supplying instructors and hand out materials that help us to realize this annual training event.
