The Florida Department of Environmental Protection has canceled the Large Quantity Generator Workshop scheduled for Sept. 26, 2024, due to Tropical Storm Helene. A new date will be announced soon.

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection's (DEP) Southeast District is offering a virtual training opportunity on Sept. 26, 2024, for Large Quantity Generators of Hazardous Waste in south Florida.

This workshop is geared toward facilities generating 1,000 kg (approximately 5 drums) or more of hazardous waste per month. DEP will provide an overview of the department’s Large Quantity Generator requirements and information regarding the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s hazardous waste generator requirements. The department will also cover the proper management of hazardous waste in the event of an emergency. The workshop will conclude with a question-and-answer session.
