Recorded Webinar Available on Ohio's Cessation of Regulated Operations

Thursday, July 1, 2010 by August Mack Environmental, Inc.
In 1987, vandals broke into a closed facility in Dayton, Ohio and caused a release of PCB oils that took years and $8 million to address. Because Ohio recognizes facility abandonment as a precursor to the creation of a Superfund site, the State created the Cessation of Regulated Operations (CRO) Program in 1996. Today, perhaps because of an increase in facility closings related to the economy, the Ohio EPA appears to be bringing an increased focus to this program. Find out who is regulated or...

After talking with the personnel at the facility I gain an understanding of why they are not adhering to the regulations. In the vast majority of cases, it is nothing more than they didn't...

How Do You Measure Noise Levels

Monday, May 10, 2010 by Health and Safety Account Team
Two devices that measure noise exposure include a sound level meter and the dosimeter. A sound level meter measures the intensity of sound at a given moment. A dosimeter is like a sound level meter except it stores sound level measurements and integrates these measurements over time. This provides an average noise exposure reading for a given period of time.  If you are utilizing these devices, make sure to calibrate the instruments.
