17
Q

“MORE” Effective ESC Plan

A
  1. Multi barrier approach
  2. On-going process
  3. Regular Inspection, Monitoring and Maintenance.
  4. Education and training
18
Q

Inspector responsibilities during construction activities.

A
  1. Review ESC Plan to see if it current.
  2. Review BMP on site if it functional
  3. Documents findings
    -Document your finding and communicate it to conractor.
    -Don’t be confrontational to contractor
  4. Ensure that BMP is effective during storm events
  5. Do not redesign ESC report and ESC plan drawing
    -Inspector are not responsible if BMP are not working properly
    -Inspector are not responsible to fix BMP that need to be fix
  6. Be prepare to inspect during shutdown conditions.
  7. Be prepare to require temporary suspension of construction activities.
