UST Class A/B Operator Training - Preparatory Program

This thorough 9 module UST Class A/B training curriculum has recently been added to our catalog to help educate and prepare for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Operator Exam.

The 2005 Energy Policy Act requires that all UST operators receive mandatory training regarding the operation and maintenance of UST systems.

The EPA designated three separate UST operator classes, Class A, B, and C. Each class requires training specific to the tasks they conduct. Class A operators must have the knowledge to make informed decisions when it comes to UST compliance. They also make sure their employees are fulfilling requirements regarding operation, maintenance, and recordkeeping for their UST system. Class B operators are responsible for implementing the day-to-day aspects of operating, maintaining, and recordkeeping for the UST system.

With this training program, you will learn state rules and regulations as well as class-specific operator responsibilities and training requirements in the following areas:

Module 1: UST Operator Training Requirements

Module 2: Underground Storage Tanks

Module 3: Spill and Overfill Prevention

Module 4: Release Detection

Module 5: Corrosion Control

Module 6: UST Financial Requirements

Module 7: Temporary and Permanent Tank Closure

Module 8: Emergency Response

Module 9: Recordkeeping and Reporting
