For small home builders: the site super gets a reminder for the weekly inspection and an alert when rain at the site reaches the trigger, walks the site with a checklist, photographs the controls, and the inspection report required by your state construction stormwater permit is ready.

Builder with 6 lots under one permit. Friday night 0.7 inches of rain — alert on Saturday morning. Inspection: silt fence down on lot 3, inlet protection full on the street — two corrective actions created, fixed Monday with photos. Report signed and stored.
Choose your planMost home construction sites that disturb an acre or more, or are part of a larger subdivision, are covered by a construction stormwater permit and need a stormwater pollution prevention plan, or SWPPP. The permit usually requires regular inspections — often weekly — and inspections after rain above a set amount, with written reports and corrective actions for every problem found. Missed inspections are one of the most common findings when a state or city inspector visits.
For a small builder the problem is not the inspection itself — it takes fifteen minutes — but remembering it every week on every lot, noticing that it rained enough to trigger an extra inspection, and keeping the reports in order. SWPPP Inspector takes care of the reminders and the paperwork.
Each site is set up once with its permit, the inspection frequency and the rain trigger. The service tracks rainfall at the site location and sends an alert when an after-rain inspection is due, along with the weekly reminder. The site super opens the checklist on the phone.
The checklist follows the controls in your plan: perimeter controls such as silt fence, inlet protection, the stabilized construction entrance, stockpiles, concrete washout, and stabilization of finished areas. Each item gets a quick answer and a photo. Problems become corrective actions with a deadline; when they are fixed, the super adds a photo and the action closes.
When the inspection is complete, the report is generated with the date, the inspector, the rain data, the findings and the photos, and is signed on the phone. Reports are stored by site and permit, ready when a state or city inspector asks, and ready for the notice of termination when the lots are stabilized.
The office sees all sites on one screen: inspections done, due and overdue, and open corrective actions. It is easy to show a lender, a city or a buyer that the site was managed properly.
Setting up takes minutes per site: address, permit number, inspection frequency, rain trigger and the people who inspect.
On a busy week with several lots, the super does not need to remember which site is due. The morning list shows which inspections are due today, which corrective actions are still open and which sites had rain overnight. Each inspection takes the same few minutes on the phone, and nothing is written twice.
The service supports inspections and keeps records; the permittee remains responsible for permit compliance and for the content of the reports. We are not affiliated with EPA or any state or local stormwater agency.
Rainfall is tracked for each site location; when it reaches the trigger in your permit, you get an alert that an inspection is due.
