Train construction crews and compliance staff to use SWPPPs and best management practices that keep sediment and pollutants out of stormwater runoff.
Environmental professionals will learn that Stormwater Pollution Prevent Plans and Best Management Practices are crucial elements in erosion and runoff control through this essential stormwater management training program. Participants gain critical knowledge for environmental professionals, supervisors, and stormwater management specialists who must ensure effective stormwater management and successful environmental protection in various work environments. The program covers essential stormwater management protocols, procedures, and comprehensive management strategies that enhance stormwater management effectiveness and ensure successful environmental protection in various workplace environments. Participants will learn about stormwater management requirements, management procedures, and comprehensive protocols that ensure stormwater management success and successful environmental protection in workplace environments. The training emphasizes the importance of proper stormwater management procedures, management techniques, and comprehensive stormwater management programs that enhance stormwater management effectiveness and ensure successful environmental protection in workplace environments. Through detailed instruction on stormwater management protocols, management strategies, and environmental protection techniques, participants will develop the skills necessary to implement effective stormwater management programs that meet professional standards and ensure stormwater management success and successful environmental protection in workplace environments.
Stormwater pollution prevention training is for construction superintendents, site managers, equipment operators and environmental compliance staff. It also suits anyone who installs, inspects or maintains erosion and sediment controls on a permitted site. The 13-minute video is in English with Spanish and French closed captions.
A SWPPP is generally required when construction disturbs one acre or more. Smaller sites need one if they are part of a larger common plan of development. The requirement comes from the Clean Water Act's NPDES stormwater program at 40 CFR 122.26. Many states issue their own permits with added conditions.
Best management practices, or BMPs, are the methods used to prevent stormwater pollution. Structural BMPs are physical controls such as silt fences, sediment basins, inlet protection and stabilized construction entrances. Non-structural BMPs include housekeeping, spill prevention, scheduling and training. Most sites need both types.
Sediment from exposed soil is the most common stormwater pollutant on construction sites. Others include fuel and oil from equipment, concrete washout, fertilizers, sanitary waste, paints and other chemicals. Runoff carries these materials into storm drains and waterways, harming water quality and aquatic life.
Erosion control keeps soil in place, using methods such as mulch, seeding, erosion control blankets and slope stabilization. Sediment control captures soil that has already moved, using silt fences, sediment traps and basins. Good stormwater plans emphasize erosion control first, since preventing soil loss is easier than trapping it.
