This course is designed for a range of waste management regulators working in compliance schemes, the EPA or in local authorities. Carrying out routine and non routine inspections is part of the typical work of an environmental enforcement professional. The course reviews the requirements of the Waste Management Act in relation to waste operation and waste activities from a legislative perspective, identifying the various components of the Waste Management Act and how they can be used as tools for enforcement. The course then goes through the key skills required for routine inspections and non routine inspections and how to deal with issues such as interviewing, note taking, evidence gathering and reporting of inspections. This is a very practical skill designed to help those that need to work in the field and deal with the day to day business of carrying out inspections. This is a one day course with a number of exercises to help begin to explore and develop the skills needed to be an inspector.
