15^th Annual
Environmental Management and
Chemical Spill Response Training Seminar

August 2^nd – August 6^th, 2009
Westin Key West Resort & Marina

You’re invited to join us in the Florida Keys.......for the most popular training
event of its kind in the nation. Now in its 15th year!  This invitation is sent only to
persons that have attended our OSHA Level II class or higher.  We have 22 remaining seats,
and this mailer is being sent to 2,600 persons.  If you desire to attend, please call immediately! 
A phone call holds your seat in this year’s class.

The staff of Crop Production Services is putting on their largest training event of the year. 
The course includes four days of intensive training preparing you to deal with all aspects of a
chemical emergency at your location.  From developing an emergency response plan, choosing the
equipment you need (and avoiding equipment you don’t need), and developing a spill response team.  We’ll
also teach you how to deal with the media (a real concern anytime there is an emergency at your location).
You’ll also get hands-on experience using start-of-the-art equipment including self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). 

 During the environmental management portion of the course, you’ll learn the latest regulations from
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection concerning chemical handling and storage.  We’ll also
review “environmental hot spots” that draw attention from government inspectors.  More importantly, we’ll show you
what an environmental auditor from a lending institution will be looking for should you ever decide to sell your property. 
Upon completion of the course, you’ll be nationally certified as an Incident Commander, OSHA Level V.  It’s the
highest level for emergency responders designated by the U.S. Department of Labor.  We’ll issue you a photo ID that
serves as proof of your qualifications to direct clean-up activities should you have a chemical release.

 Registration for the course is $795 for first time students, refresher students are only $395.  This fee includes
all course materials, lunch and refreshments daily during the course.  This course is an incredible bargain,
and sells out each and every year.  If you want to attend, don’t delay!  All it takes is a phone call to secure
your place in this year’s class.  And remember, after this year, you’ll be able to attend all future years at the
annual refresher rate.  Class size is limited, and fills quickly each year.
