West Virginia OEHS CDLR Technician License; CDLR Contractor License

Administered by: West Virginia Office of Environmental Health Services (OEHS), Radiation, Toxics & Indoor Air Division (WVDHHR)

General Business License

West Virginia Contractor License required under WV Contractor Licensing Act; no person may engage as a contractor without a license.

Medical Waste Transport

WV DEP oversees; specific medical waste transporter registration uncertain.

Meth / Drug Lab Cleanup

WV DHHR designates OEHS as state agency for clandestine drug lab remediation standards; separate CDLR Technician and Contractor licenses required; online application system available; numerical standard: 1.0 µg/100cm².
