SWPPP Compliance Documentation

In the world of construction and environmental management, documentation is proof of diligence. It demonstrates that every measure has been taken to protect water quality, meet regulatory expectations, and maintain ethical operational standards.

Our certified professionals manage everything from SWPPP recordkeeping and inspection logs to agency reports, site maps, and audit preparation, ensuring your project stays compliant, transparent, and inspection-ready at all times.

The Importance of Proper Documentation

Stormwater compliance is about more than installing the right controls. It’s about maintaining verifiable proof that those controls are being implemented and maintained correctly. The EPA’s NPDES Construction General Permit (CGP) and most state-level programs (like TCEQ in Texas) require detailed recordkeeping that tracks every aspect of construction site compliance.

Failure to maintain accurate documentation can result in regulatory citations, project delays, or loss of permit coverage. Red River Storm Water eliminates that risk by managing your entire documentation process with precision and consistency.

We help you build a clear paper trail that satisfies inspectors, auditors, and clients alike.

Complete Documentation Support

Every project we support is different, but the need for thorough, consistent documentation is universal. Red River Storm Water offers end-to-end recordkeeping services that capture the full picture of your compliance activities.

SWPPP Development and Maintenance Records

Your Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) serves as the foundation for compliance. We ensure that all associated documentation remains accurate and current throughout the project lifecycle.

• Site-specific SWPPP updates and amendments
• Plan review logs and revision tracking
• Documentation of design changes, BMP installations, and new phases
• Digital and physical file organization for easy retrieval

Our team ensures that your SWPPP reflects real-time site conditions, so if an inspector requests verification, you’ll have it ready within moments.

Inspection Logs and Corrective Actions

Routine inspections are essential to maintaining compliance. We document every inspection performed by our certified CESSWI and CPESC professionals, capturing detailed field observations, site photographs, and compliance notes.

• Scheduled inspection logs (weekly, biweekly, or post-rainfall)
• Corrective-action reports for any identified deficiencies
• Verification of remediation completion with photo documentation
• Inspector credentials, weather data, and rainfall records

These reports meet EPA and state permit requirements while providing a reliable chain of evidence for all compliance activities.

BMP Installation and Maintenance Records

Each Best Management Practice (BMP) used on your site, temporary or permanent, requires proper installation documentation and maintenance tracking. Our BMP recordkeeping services include:

• Installation verification logs and date-stamped photos
• Manufacturer specifications and installation checklists
• Maintenance schedules and service records
• Documentation of repairs, replacements, or removals

This level of detail protects your project during audits and ensures every BMP remains functional and compliant.

Discharge Monitoring and Testing Reports

For projects requiring dewatering or active stormwater discharge, Red River Storm Water provides comprehensive water quality monitoring documentation.

• Sampling data and laboratory results (turbidity, pH, TSS)
• Calibration and equipment verification logs
• Chain-of-custody forms and analytical summaries
• Discharge volume tracking and reporting logs

We coordinate directly with certified laboratories and permitting agencies to ensure your testing meets NPDES or state discharge requirements.

Regulatory Alignment Across All Jurisdictions

Our team has extensive experience navigating the documentation requirements of multiple regulatory authorities. We prepare and maintain compliance records consistent with:

• EPA’s NPDES Construction General Permit (CGP)
• State programs such as TCEQ
• Local municipal stormwater ordinances and MS4 (Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System) reporting

Because each state and city can impose different recordkeeping timelines and formats, we ensure your project documentation aligns precisely with local expectations while maintaining a unified national standard.

This attention to jurisdictional detail helps prevent errors and redundancies that could otherwise lead to compliance gaps.

Certified Expertise, Verified Results

At Red River Storm Water, compliance isn’t just about meeting the minimum—it’s about exceeding expectations through accountability and transparency. Our team holds the industry’s most respected credentials, including CPESC and CESSWI certifications, backed by decades of field experience.

We know exactly what regulators look for during inspections and audits, and we structure your documentation accordingly. Every log, map, and report we produce undergoes an internal review to verify accuracy and completeness.

This disciplined approach minimizes risk, simplifies oversight, and protects your project’s reputation.
