Regional Clear Water Contractors Training

Staff Reports

Two opportunities for Clear Water Contractor training are being offered on March 13 and March 27. Several development related organizations have joined together to provide training for regional contractors on the laws and best practices pertaining to sediment, erosion, and stormwater control. Agency representatives from the NC Division of Water Quality, Army Corps of Engineers, and NC Geological Survey will share information on practices and tools to help address land stabilization and maintaining water quality.

Sediment, erosion, and stormwater controls and regulations as well
as a heightened awareness among consumers has created a demand for
well-informed contractors, graders, heavy equipment operators, and site
managers.  Contractors who have completed the Clear Water Contractor
Training Program are awarded a certificate of recognition. A list and
photos of those completing the training, online resources for
contractors, and marketing materials such as a television commercial
are also available at www.clearwatercontractors.org.

For additional information visit www.clearwatercontractors.org
or call (828) 712-0972. Registration is only $35 and includes lunch and
a copy of the NC Erosion and Sedimentation Control Field Manual.
