3.00 Credits
This course concentrates on management issues and study of the fate and transport of hazardous materials in the environment. Management topics are broken down into three broad categories: regulatory issues, those necessary for daily operation of an industrial facility (industrial hygiene, storage, and transportation issues), and preliminary environmental site assessments. Fate and transport issues will be dealt with quantitatively. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 3
