Cost: US$ 50.00 Presented by Jennifer Hildebrand (original Webinar held 6/25/2010) This (pre-recorded) webinar looks at inspection programs that really do work! The focus is from the perspective of the inspector for a regulatory agency and the inspector who may be inspecting their own sites. In this day and age where documentation and legal perspectives are often scrutinized long after the event occurs the proper way to conduct inspections has never been more important. How your write things down is often more important than what you are writing down for deficiencies. If you are conducting inspections on construction sites, or post construction stormwater facilities; this course is for you. We discuss successful inspection programs for MS4's and traditional construction companies. We learn about the differences needed when conducting inspections on post construction stormwater practices, we learn about common mistakes, and how to avoid repeating them on your projects. Come and learn about techniques for proper inspection, challenges with communication, and proper documentation techniques. Don't miss an opportunity to view program components that will change the way you conduct your very next inspection. Learn techniques that are not taught in traditional programs, and capitalize on others mistakes. Take this time to focus on one of the most important items of environmental compliance you can complete: proper inspections.
