This session will walk you through the basics of planning a SWPPP for your construction projects, how to select the appropriate BMPs and implement them throughout the life of the project. The most important BMP is you as a CESCL and how you manage the SWPPP and effectively communicate issues or needs with your client and other parties involved with the project. Finally, you will hear CESCL stories on real projects in the Greater Puget Sound region and how specific issues were resolved.
