SUBCOURSE MD0162

SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL

INTRODUCTION

In order to keep the environment clean and free of offensive sights and smells

which cause a decrease in morale, to reduce harborage and food for insects and

rodents, and to control communicable diseases which reduce manpower and work

efficiency, the practice of sanitary waste disposal is necessary. The preventive

medicine specialist has the task of spotting sanitary deficiencies and making the

appropriate corrective recommendations. Because this is an important job, the basic

aspects of it must be learned carefully.

This subcourse consists of two lessons and an examination as follows:

Lesson 1. Solid Waste Disposal at Fixed Installation.

Lesson 2. Solid Waste Disposal in the Field.

Examination

Credit Awarded:

Upon successful completion of this subcourse, you will be awarded 4 credit
