What document specifies the sediment and erosion controls to be implemented on a site?

• A. SWPPP
• B. Construction schedule
• C. Safety plan
• D. Quality control plan

Answer: (A)

Sediment and erosion controls on a construction site are laid out in the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). This document specifies the exact control measures to be used, how and when they are installed and maintained, and who is responsible for them. It typically includes a site map, the chosen BMPs (such as silt fences, sediment basins, inlet protections, and stabilization measures), timelines for implementing controls, and inspection and maintenance procedures. The other documents serve different purposes: a construction schedule outlines the work sequence and timing, a safety plan focuses on worker safety, and a quality control plan addresses workmanship and material quality. So the SWPPP is the one that explicitly specifies the sediment and erosion controls to be implemented on the site.
