A routine stormwater inspection form for construction site environmental compliance officers verifying that best management practices are installed and functioning per the site's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Covers erosion and sediment controls, site stabilisation, construction entrances, material storage, concrete washout, dewatering activities, and outfall monitoring as required by the EPA NPDES Construction General Permit.

The Clean Water Act requires construction sites disturbing one acre or more to obtain NPDES permit coverage and implement a SWPPP. Sites must be inspected at least every 7 days or within 24 hours after a rainfall event of 0.5 inches or more. This checklist documents the inspection that keeps the site in compliance and out of enforcement action.
