 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of the Western Region Universities Consortium (WRUC) training program is to protect workers and communities from exposure to hazardous materials and hazardous waste; to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies/disasters; and to create pathways to careers in the environmental field and construction industry. WRUC programs are delivered in EPA Regions IX and X through the UCLA Labor Occupational Safety and Health Program (UCLA-LOSH) as the lead institution, UC Berkeley's Labor Occupational Health Program (UCB-LOHP), Arizona State University's Fulton Schools of Engineering, Environmental & Resource Management Program (ASU), and University of Washington's Northwest Center for Occupational Health & Safety (UW). The Consortium has developed model programs since 1987 and will continue to do so in the coming five years through three NIEHS components: Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program (HWWTP), Hazard Disaster Preparedness Training Program (HDPTP) and Environmental Career Worker Training Program (ECWTP). WRUC will train 15,295 workers and community members in 1,250 courses for a total of 314,740 contact hours. Courses address hazards to workers in hazardous waste cleanup and hazmat treatment, storage, transport and disposal operations; strengthen emergency response, disaster prevention, preparedness, and response and recovery activities; and provide job readiness and life skills. WRUC will expand outreach to underserved populations; respond to new and emerging hazards; build capacity to sustain training activities, safety and emergency response programs; and support a national network of HAZWOPER trainers and emergency responders. A Safe Jobs Safe Communities initiative for California refinery workers and those in surrounding communities can serve as a model beyond the region. 1) HWWTP activities will reach 11,115 hazardous materials and waste workers and supervisors throughout the region and strengthen emergency response capacity on the US-Mexico border, among tribal groups and in the Pacific Islands. A climate change initiative incorporates technology to reach day laborers and the large Spanish-speaking outdoor workforce. 2) HDPT activities will reach 3,575 workers and community members through partnerships with tribal groups in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest and with labor and community environmental justice groups in California, home to the nation's largest ports complex and high concentrations of refineries and chemical facilities. 3) ECWTP activities in Los Angeles, Seattle and Portland will train and place 605 workers in construction and environmental jobs.

 描述（由适用提供）：西部地区大学联盟（WRUC）培训计划的总体目标是保护工人和社区免于暴露于危险物质和危险废物中；预防，准备，回应并从紧急情况/灾难中恢复；并在环境领域和建筑业中创造通往职业的途径。 WRUC计划通过UCLA劳动职业安全与健康计划（UCLA-LOSH）在EPA区域IX和X提供，作为主要机构，UC Berkeley的劳动职业健康计划（UCB-LOHP），亚利桑那州立大学的富尔顿工程，环境与资源管理计划（ASU），ASU）和华盛顿州的Northwest Perication Centiatiation Centional Centional和UNEW Safifenation Certitation Centional＆Unewestication Centional＆Unewestication Centiation＆UNISPICATY CENTION（UCB-LOHP）。该财团自1987年以来一直开发了模型计划，并将在未来五年内通过三个NIEHS组件继续这样做：危险废物工人培训计划（HWWTP），危害灾难准备培训计划（HDPTP）和环境职业职业工人培训计划（ECWTP）。 WRUC将在1,250个课程中培训15,295名工人和社区成员，总共314,740个接触时间。课程针对危险废物清理和危险品处理，存储，运输和处置操作的危害；加强紧急响应，预防灾难，准备以及响应和恢复活动；并提供工作准备和生活技能。 WRUC将扩大服务不足的人口；应对新的和新兴的危害；建立维持培训活动，安全和应急计划的能力；并支持由Hazwoper培训师和应急人员组成的国家网络。为加利福尼亚炼油厂和周围社区中的安全工作社区的安全工作安全社区倡议可以作为该地区以外的典范。 1）HWWTP活动将达到整个地区的11,115个危险材料以及废物工人和主管，并在部落群体和太平洋群岛之间加强在美墨边境的紧急响应能力。气候变化倡议结合了技术，以达到日间劳动和讲西班牙语的大型户外劳动力。 2）HDPT活动将通过与阿拉斯加和西北太平洋的部落团体以及加利福尼亚州的劳工和社区环境司法团体的伙伴关系来吸引3,575名工人和社区成员，这是该国最大的港口综合体和高浓度的炼油厂和化学设施的所在地。 3）ECWTP在洛杉矶，西雅图和波特兰的活动将培训并将605名工人置于建筑和环境工作。
