The environmental series begins with the most basic element of all: water. We will discuss how to keep it clean on our jobsite, how to protect existing waterways and drain fields, dealing with stormwater runoff and required permits, what General Permit #2 requires and why, and how to obtain permit coverage. A DNR Field Officer offers perspective on inspections, complaints and common deficiencies.

Learning Objectives:

• Proper Clean Up and Regulatory Reporting Requirements
• Stormwater Runoff and Mitigation
• Permit Requirements
