NWETC - CESCL: Erosion and Sediment Control Lead Training 2-Day in Oregon
NWETC’s 2-day CESCL course is a dynamic interaction between traditional classroom style and hands-on exercises. Day 1 is spent in the classroom discussing impacts of erosion and sedimentation, regulations, CESCL responsibilities and examining the most up-to-date techniques in the management of sediment and construction sites through BMP descriptions and case studies. In this Oregon course, we will examine BMPs and regulations specific to managing stormwater in Oregon, while also completing the necessary information for WA CESCL certification. We will also discuss details of the Oregon 1200C and 1200CN permits, and how they relate to the CESCL activities on construction sites. Day 2 starts in the classroom with a review of a variety of case studies. Next, attendees will take the certification exam. On the afternoon of day 2, the class will visit field sites and practice inspections and best management practices of choosing mats, blankets, check dams, bonded fiber matrix, straw, and other erosion control techniques for various site locations. Please dress appropriately for the weather.Erosion and Sedimentation Impacts
