Construction Site Inspection Plan
City of Cape Canaveral
Construction site inspections are conducted for land-disturbing projects which have the potential to discharge stormwater runoff into the City’s stormwater system.
Timing:
Construction site inspections are conducted:
Before the start of construction and after the placement of temporary BMPs;
During construction (one or more inspections, based on the project’s potential for discharge to the stormwater system); and
At the end of the construction.
Site Priority:
All construction sites are considered priority if they have the potential to discharge into water bodies or the City’s stormwater system. Sites will be inspected with a frequency deemed
appropriate during the site plan review process and with consideration to rainfall events. In addition, any sites where compliance is a concern will be inspected more frequently.
Inspection Procedure:
Inspections are the responsibility of Public Works Services Department and are conducted using the construction site inspection form. The intent of the inspection is to verify that
BMPs are performing and to document the inspections.
Enforcement:
Instances of non-compliance will be handled with successively more rigorous enforcement measures:
Notice of Violation
Stop work order
Fines
The construction site inspector will issue notices of violation or stop work orders as deemed necessary.
