Weekly Site Inspections Services

As a condition of the 2006 NPDES General Permit For Construction Activities, all permittees are required to ensure that weekly inspections of their land disturbing activities are conducted. Under the previous 1998 NPDES General Permit, these weekly inspections were to be conducted by qualified personnel. “Qualified personnel” is a vague term and was simply defined as someone who is knowledgeable in the principles and practices of sediment and erosion control. The new 2006 NPDES General Permit goes one step further and defines who is qualified to conduct inspections.

Complain Solution Services

No matter how well a construction site is designed, maintained, and monitored, sometimes Mother Nature will toss a storm event your way that your Best Management Practices can not or are not designed to handle. Most regulations require that storm water management and sediment and erosion control devices be designed to handle the 2 and 10-year, 24 hour rainfall events. However, a typical summertime thunderstorm or a tropical weather system can dump several inches of rain on your site in a very short amount of time. On occasion, this type of situation may overload your BMPs and storm water devices, therefore creating potential problems both on and offsite. In situations like this, we will have documentation to provide to any citizen or regulatory inquiry showing that the site has been inspected and maintained in accordance with the regulations that are in place.
