Join us for our upcoming webinars in the Waste Webinar Series

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Materials Management Division (MMD) proudly presents the Waste Webinar Series. The series was first recorded in 2016, refreshed in 2020 and 2023, and is being refreshed again in 2026.  The Waste Webinar Series provides valuable information to help Michigan facilities achieve and maintain compliance with the hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products  regulations. Sites handling these waste streams are encouraged to view all of the webinars that apply to site-specific waste activities and complete the self-certification form [ [link removed] ] that documents the training was completed.

The webinars are introductory in nature, free, and feature firsthand experiences from MMD inspectors.  Anyone responsible for environmental, health, and safety compliance would benefit from participating in and/or viewing the webinars.  Anyone who registers for the webinars will get a follow-up e-mail with additional topic specific resources and a link to the recording when it is available. 

Do not miss out, register today or catch up by viewing the recordings shared on the Waste Webinar Series Webpage [ [link removed] ].
