A successful inspection program is the key to proper implementation of Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) and maintaining regulatory compliance. Best Management Practices (BMPs), in turn, are the cornerstone of SWPPP implementation, effective storm water management, and successful sediment and erosion control. To ensure an effective and successful inspection program, inspectors need to have an appropriate and adequate knowledge of BMPs. This presentation will address obtaining adequate BMP knowledge, the challenges of interacting with others regarding BMPs, and examples of some frequently misused BMPs. Ensuring that inspectors have appropriate BMP knowledge gives them the tools to be effective. It is also important that inspectors understand how to discuss this information with the contractor, designers and regulators. This fosters consistence, quality, and regulatory compliance, which lends credibility to the industry.
