                                        TDEC Construction General Permit EPSC Inspections

                                        Good Morning,

                                        If a project is required to have a TDEC Construction General Permit (any project disturbing more than one acre or a construction site that is part of a permitted project) the developer is required to perform routine Erosion Control and Sediment Prevention (EPSC) inspections.

                                        TDEC is now requiring all EPSC inspections to be documented using the attached form.

                                        County stormwater inspections do not include checking to see if the TDEC required paperwork is up to date because it is not something we regulate.  If the TDEC inspector checks your site and the required paperwork is not as it should be, you will get a Notice of Violation and you may get a fine.

                                        If you have any questions, I would be happy to discuss the requirements with you.  If enough people contact me, I will try to arrange a short presentation at the next HBA meeting.

                                        I will also post the forms on the stormwater website: http://www.mcgtn.org/stormwater

                                        Respectfully,

                                        John H. Doss

                                        FYI,
                                        You may already have this update but I just got this hot from TDEC… please feel free to distribute among our clients.

                                        We will be watching for these beginning right away. It will not be a ‘non-compliance’ immediately but we should be seeing this at every permit site by Thanksgiving.

                                        Please make a point of having the new forms available for your staff people and help us get the word out.

                                        Howdy Everyone!
                                         FYI: We recently made a few improvements to the Twice Weekly CGP Inspection form and I've attached it for you. It has been uploaded to our website.  :-)
                                        Hope you're enjoying a great week!

                                        The requirements of the Small MS4 Permit issued to the County on October 1, 2010 are now in effect for all development and construction that disturbs 10,000 square feet or more of soil.   I have attached the new permit to this email.
                                         
                                        We will also begin enforcing the requirements of the new CGP when it is approved.  The approval is anticipated for April, 2011.
