The EPA provides regulatory guidance for the movement, storage, and disposal of hazardous chemicals:

• A. Provides regulatory guidance for the movement, storage, and disposal of hazardous chemicals.
• B. Enforces on-base traffic laws
• C. Issuing work permits for flight operations
• D. Maintaining base safety equipment

Answer: (A)

Understanding who regulates hazardous materials is key. The EPA is charged with environmental protection and provides the regulatory guidance on how hazardous chemicals must be moved, stored, and disposed of to prevent releases and protect people and ecosystems. This role focuses on environmental safety and waste management, not on other base duties. On-base traffic enforcement is handled by security or local authorities, issuing flight operation permits falls under aviation operations, and maintaining base safety equipment is a facilities or safety responsibility. So the EPA’s regulatory guidance is the correct description of how hazardous chemicals should be managed.
