APTI 446 - INSPECTION PROCEDURES AND SAFETY (6/6/2018 - 6/7/2018)

Information
Description
This course presents safety procedures for inspecting and evaluating air pollution control systems. Practical
techniques are described to aid plant operations personnel and regulatory agency inspectors in minimizing health and safety hazards. Emphasis is placed on the early recognition and avoidance of problems. Unique combinations of
hazards found around air pollution control systems are presented. The use of personal protection equipment is
discussed. This course is intended to supplement general industrial hygiene and safety procedures which should be
followed by all personnel engaged in field work.
Who Should Attend
This basic course is focused specifically on safety procedures for inspecting and evaluating air pollution control
systems. This class is intended for compliance engineers, scientists and technicians (or field inspectors) who are
responsible for inspection of industrial emission sources.
