SWPPP
Implementation
• Long lead time – look at big picture
• Bringing proper departments into fold
• Look at project holistically
• Maximizing cost effectiveness
• Develop SWPPP early and refine often
• Find a good QSD
• Use BMP recognized BMP specifications
•Verify that the contractor is aware of SWPPP and CGP requirements
•What is the hierarchy of BMP assessment and maintenance?
• Are the BMPs installed correctly?

• Long lead time
• Bringing proper departments into fold
CIP Project • Build SWPPP development and
inspection into contract
Planning
 Understand what is necessary for CGP Compliance
 Work collaboratively with other jurisdictional
departments
 Know the different permitting requirements
5
Potential Hurdles to Project
Planning
Hurdle
Solution
•
Communication
•
•
Enforcement
Set up lines of
communication
between jurisdiction,
QSP, and contractor
during contract
negotiations
• Make enforcement a
priority through
contract penalties
6
• Look at project holistically
• Maximize cost effectiveness
• Develop SWPPP early and refine
SWPPP
Development
often
 Where are BMPs needed
 What BMPs are most cost effective (hint: planning)
 Develop construction SWPPP early
 Make sure contractor understands SWPPP
requirements
7
• Find a good QSD
• Use BMP recognized BMP specifications
• Verify that the contractor is aware of
SWPPP
Development SWPPP and CGP requirements
 Hold contractor to SWPPP specifications
 Ask for assistance from the QSD
8
Potential Hurdles to SWPPP
Development
Hurdle
Solution
•
Set up lines of
communication
between jurisdiction,
QSP, and contractor
during contract
negotiations
• BMP Responsibility • Identify BMP
responsibility during
contract negotiations
•
Communication

Potential Hurdles to SWPPP
Development
Hurdle
Solution
•
•
SMARTS
Spend time to get to know
SMARTS or contract with
someone that has
experience
10
SWPPP
Implementation
• What is the hierarchy of BMP
assessment and maintenance?
• Are the BMPs installed
correctly?
 Provide training and hire
experienced contractors
 Verify that the BMPs are
properly installed and
maintained
11
Potential Hurdles to SWPPP
Implementation
Hurdle
Solution
•
Ineffective BMPs
•
•
Improper
implementation
Request a QSD
assessment and update
the SWPPP
• Provide training or
require that QSP is
present full time
12
Potential Hurdles to SWPPP
Implementation
Hurdle
Solution
Lack of Maintenance • Request a QSD
assessment and update
the SWPPP
• Improper
• Provide training or
implementation
require that QSP is
present full time
