Construction Stormwater Consulting

We at Whatcom Environmental Services understand that managing stormwater is not your core business. The less time and money you spend on it, the more you can spend on what you are really about. We are committed to helping you face your stormwater management by working with you to find cost-effective solutions and avoid expensive treatment systems and Department of Ecology fines.

Thinking upstream saves you money. If your stormwater samples tell you your turbidity levels are high you could pursue costly stormwater treatment. However we prefer to help our clients devise creative solutions that are much less expensive and that prevent sediment loss in the first place.

We provide:

  • Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans,
  • Stormwater Sampling and Inspections of BMPs,
  • DMR submission to Ecology,
  • BMP maintenance for your site,
  • Assistance in navigating and understanding the Construction Stormwater permit requirements.

The Washington Department of Ecology requires all construction activities which disturb more than one acre, to apply for coverage under the Construction Stormwater General Permit.
