why RCRA compliance is critical

Mishandling hazardous waste can lead to severe environmental damage, huge fines, and even criminal charges. The EPA actively enforces RCRA — in 2025 alone, penalties exceeded $12 million.

  • Civil penalties up to $70,000 per day, per violation
  • Criminal liability for knowing endangerment
  • Groundwater contamination cleanup costs
  • Shutdown orders for non‑compliance

recent case

"Automotive recycler fined $1.2M for failing to determine waste, improper storage, and no contingency plan." This course prevents that.
