Tiffany:&nbsp;Hi, Gustav Borstad!My name is Tiffany. Welcome to ComplyChat!How are you today? 
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;I am well, thank you. How are you&gt;

Tiffany:&nbsp;I am good thank you
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;I completed the 40-hour HAZWOPER on August 1, 2019, and the refresher on July 27, 2020.
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;My question is whether it needs to always be completed within the next twelve months or if it is once in each calendar year. It seems that me that it is the former, but I am not sure.
Tiffany:&nbsp;HAZWOPER Refreshers are required annually to stay certified.  I see you completed your 40-Hour in 08/2019 and completed your first refresher at the end of 07/2020.  So your next refresher is coming due the end of this month.  A hands-on portion requirement is only required for the initial 40 or 24 Hour certification not the annual 8-Hour Refreshers.  
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;So, it would lapse after July 27, 2021, or is it just the end of the month?
Tiffany:&nbsp;You want to keep your recertification date as close to the initial/previous refresher training dates as possible.  
Tiffany:&nbsp;We appreciate your using ComplyChat to contact us! Is there anything else we can do to serve you better? 
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;Thank you. So the best case is to complete this year&#39;s refresher on July 27?
Tiffany:&nbsp;Does not have to be the exact date but yes, as close to 07/27/2021 as you can do.
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;Thank you.
Gustav Borstad:&nbsp;Have a great day.
