SUMMARY:BC CESCL Course
DESCRIPTION:The BC-CESCL course is designed to help practitioners understand how to manage erosion and sediment control on their construction projects and understand their obligations under government legislation. Although it most relevant for the “boots on the ground” site personnel and new ESC professionals\, site monitors often take the course and benefit from expanding their knowledge. The two-day course and exam covers erosion and sedimentation processes\, regulatory requirements\, understanding erosion and sediment control plans\, best management practices\, inspections\, and record-keeping.
