What is a SWPPP? SWPPP stands for Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and is required documentation for compliance with State of California storm water pollution regulations during construction. If your construction project involves more than one acre of land disturbance, most likely a SWPPP is required by the State Water Control Board.
A licensed Qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD) and Qualified SWPPP Practioner (QSP) can guide you through each step of the SWPPP process. We would be happy to discuss the SWPPP process with you and give you a quote for your next project. At Radder Engineering, SWPPP pricing is both straightforward and transparent.
Since 2014, Radder Engineering has partnered with StudioWC as the civil engineer to lead the design and to assist with educational outreach for California funded Drought Response Outreach Programs (DROPS) projects providing green stormwater treatment systems at seventeen individual elementary school campuses in three separate San Diego area school districts.
We LOVED helping our local 5th and 6th graders learn about civil design and how our storm water treatment protects our oceans!
