Program Abstract The extensive water networks of the United States maritime industry carry over 65 percent of the products transported in and around the country. Every United States region has supply lines to navigable waterways and/or coastal or inland ports that are used to transport these goods. In an industry that handles such a wide variety and abundance of material within and out of ports, incidental exposures are impossible to prevent, although they can be reduced through recognition of the hazardous nature of certain materials and training to minimize incidental exposure as well as accidents and mishandling. It is important that all workers at all levels in the maritime industry receive proper training on how to recognize and handle hazardous materials, along with risk reduction methods. Training for workers within and ancillary to the maritime industry that handle hazardous materials as well as training related to worker safety and health has been limited. Over nearly a decade, Project South East Area Maritime Industry Safety Training (SEAMIST), a Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program (HWWTP) funded by a cooperative agreement with the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) has addressed this unmet need. Specifically, Project SEAMIST provides health and safety training for personnel whose jobs may bring them in contact with hazardous materials in ports. To date, the program has been very successful, training approximately 7,000 participants, logging close to 70,000 contact hours and targeting several occupational areas in the maritime industry within Florida, Louisiana, Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas, Georgia, South Carolina, New York, and California. Project SEAMIST continues to aim to resolve the lack of economical and specialized training courses available to the maritime industry workers, especially as there has been numerous hazardous material incidents that have occurred within the maritime industry. At the Port of Miami in Florida, a steel container leaked ammonia that closed a section of the cargo area. At the Port of Long Beach in California, a container leaked propyl acetate and injured twelve people. These incidents demonstrate a continued occurrence of hazardous material events and thus the need for expanded and ongoing training for the health and safety of the maritime workers involved. In carrying Project SEAMIS forward, we aim to provide safety and hazardous preparedness training to over 9,000 maritime workers in both English and Spanish, and continue to revise, optimize and enhance our training curricula and evaluation protocols to reduce and possibly eliminate incidences of injuries and deaths among maritime workers.

程序摘要 美国海运业广泛的供水网络承载着65%以上的 在国内和国内各地运输的产品。美国的每个地区都有补给线 用于运输这些货物的通航水道和/或沿海或内陆港口。在 一个在港口内外处理如此广泛多样和丰富的材料的行业， 偶然暴露是不可能预防的，尽管可以通过以下措施减少 认识到某些材料的危险性，并进行培训，以尽量减少意外事故 暴露以及事故和处理不当。重要的是， 海运业接受关于如何识别和处理危险材料的适当培训， 沿着风险降低方法。对海事部门内部和附属部门的工人进行培训 处理危险材料行业以及与工人安全和健康有关的培训 是有限的。近十年来，东南地区海事行业安全项目 培训（SEAMIST），一个危险废物工人培训计划（HWWTP），由一个 与国家环境健康科学研究所（NIEHS）的合作协议 解决了这一未满足的需求。具体而言，SEAMIST项目提供健康和安全 对从事可能接触港口危险材料工作的人员进行培训。 迄今为止，该方案非常成功，培训了大约7，000名参与者， 记录了近70 000个接触小时， 佛罗里达、路易斯安那、弗吉尼亚、亚拉巴马、密西西比、德克萨斯、格鲁吉亚、南 卡罗莱纳，纽约和加州。SEAMIST项目继续致力于解决缺乏 向海运业工人提供经济和专门的培训课程， 特别是因为在过去的几年里， 海运业。在佛罗里达的迈阿密港，一个钢制集装箱泄漏了氨气， 关闭了一部分货物区在加州的长滩港，一个集装箱泄漏 乙酸丙酯，造成12人受伤。这些事件表明， 因此需要扩大和不断培训， 有关海事工人的健康和安全。在推进SEAMIS计划时，我们的目标是 为两地9，000多名海事工人提供安全和危险准备培训 英语和西班牙语，并继续修订、优化和加强我们的培训课程， 减少并尽可能消除儿童伤亡的评价议定书 海事工人。
