Product Description
North Carolina Class C operator training:

UST (Underground Storage Tank) Class C operator training is designed to prepare individuals who are responsible for the day-to-day operation of UST systems, particularly in emergency situations. 

This training focuses on recognizing and responding to alarms, spills, and other potential hazards associated with USTs. Participants learn about the basic operation of UST systems, safety protocols, and emergency response procedures.

The goal is to ensure that Class C operators can quickly and effectively address any issues that arise, minimizing the risk of environmental contamination and ensuring the safety of the facility. This training is typically shorter and more focused than Class A/B training, but it is equally important for maintaining the integrity and safety of UST operations.

All of PASS’ UST operator training courses meet and exceed the federal requirements for UST operator training and are offered through our in-house designed and built Learning Management System (LMS). PASS’ state-specific A/B training courses are custom tailored to meet state requirements, and are accepted by more states than any other training provider.  Our courses are available on demand, 24/7 and are accessible from any internet-connected computer, tablet, or phone. The student can complete an entire course in a single session or take the course in segments. The training may be stopped and restarted, allowing for maximum schedule flexibility. PASS also does not impose time restrictions on course access, so students may take as much time as they need to complete their training.

PASS’ UST operator training course content is divided into chapters. Each chapter utilizes a combination of text, images, and narration, providing a multi-faceted learning experience for diverse learning styles. Each chapter is followed by a quiz. If the student answers a quiz question incorrectly, the application automatically redirects the student to the correct course information. The student is then given another opportunity to answer the quiz question. This reflexive quizzing model ensures comprehension of the course material and reinforces learner retention.

The PASS UST Class C training course consists of seven primary chapters, which are summarized here.  Each chapter is followed by a short quiz.  Once a student has completed all chapters and quizzes (approximately 30 minutes), he or she will be directed to print out an Orientation Checklist.  During the student’s orientation tour of the facility, the student and the manager or Class B Operator will check off each item on the list as it is identified and explained.  When the Orientation Checklist has been completed, the student may print his or her UST Class C operator certificate.

In this chapter, students learn about sensitive receptors, or places where a fuel spill may leave the facility and enter the environment. The chapter also introduces students to the spill kit and its contents, and how to use spill kit components to contain spills threatening sensitive receptors like curb breaks and drains.
