15 April 2010 – Newly established EPA regulations require a monitoring program to sample and analyze turbidity of storm water from construction sites. Only a few states currently have a program that is based on EPA guidelines for industrial site sampling. Construction sites may require innovative collection techniques not similar to industrial discharges.
Based on specific construction site conditions, this "How To" webinar presents information to enable a permittee to select and set up several from among several acceptable techniques.
The presentation will include runoff characteristics, sampling protocols, site locations, sampling and analysis equipment, data interpretation, health and safety, and personnel training.
This webinar–Field Sampling and Analysis for Turbidity–will include:
- Runoff characteristics
- Sampling protocols
- Sampling and analysis equipment
- Data interpretation
- Health and safety and personnel training
