Proper installation and maintenance of Best Management Practices (BMPs)on construction sites is crucial to a contractor's ability to protect water quality and the bottom line. In this class, participants will be exposed to Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP), inspections and record keeping requirements, common erosion and sedimentation control Best Management Practices, their installation, maintenance, and ways to ensure compliance. IN addition to erosion control and soil pollution elements of a formal SWPPP, Good Housekeeping Practices should also be employed on construction sites to help protect water quality from other common construction related pollutants. This training will be of particular interest to construction site managers implementing Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP), municipal officials, code enforcement officers, and inspectors.

This class qualifies for 4 hours of Continuing Education Credit for individuals Certified in Erosion Control Practices by Maine DEP.
