Benchmark: EPA’s Proposed Rule on OB/OD of Waste Explosives

Take this benchmark to assess how much you would benefit from taking the course on Revisions to Standards for the Open Burning/Open Detonation of Waste Explosives. In a few minutes, you’ll gauge how well you grasp the rule’s intent, who is most affected, the operational shifts (like alternative technology evaluations and MTU permitting), and the equity and risk trade-offs that matter. Your responses aren’t a grade—they reveal where the course can save you time, reduce compliance risk, strengthen community trust, and improve environmental outcomes. If you’re an owner/operator, regulator, consultant, or stakeholder navigating OB/OD, these prompts will show whether you’re ready to implement safer alternatives, set protective permit conditions, and plan for monitoring and closure with confidence.
