Corporate Training By Zack Academy - CESSWI Exam Review

Why Should You Take This CESSWI Exam Review Course?

Growing communities must realize that they play a crucial role in protecting Earth's most vital resource - water - and understand that rainfall can cause many problems for construction sites. Runoff water can flow through stockpiled construction material or across disturbed soil areas and pick up pollutants or sediment. The runoff typically ends up in streams or rivers that flow to the ocean. A comprehensive and practical Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan will save you money and still protect aquatic life while communities continue to grow and prosper. 

The mission of the Certified Erosion, Sediment, and Storm Water Inspector (CESSWI) Program is to serve the public trust through the certification of individuals who are technically and ethically qualified to provide nationally consistent inspections of erosion, sediment, and storm water management practices. Compliance with an approved site plan/Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) including compliance with applicable (local, state, provincial and federal) laws and regulations is the key to achieving this goal.

Scope of Practice:  The purpose of the CESSWI Program is to certify individuals who are technically and ethically qualified to provide inspection services for compliance with Federal EPA NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System), State and Local regulations. Permit holders will know that the CESSWI they are working with has met specific criteria and has been evaluated as a competent technical inspector. The CESSWI knowledge of Federal, State and Local requirements will allow CESSWIs to best inspect and advise permit holders of the necessary practices and proper techniques to apply planned erosion and sediment control and storm water BMPs (Best Management Practices). CESSWIs have the necessary knowledge to recognize if a permitted site is in compliance with Federal (NPDES), State and Local requirements.

How to Register for the Exam Review Session: Anyone is eligible to attend the full-day review session.

How to Register for the CESSWI Exam:  We recommend taking the CESSWI Exam Prep class and CESSWI Exam on consecutive days, if possible - but it is not a requirement. Before taking the exam, you must apply online at www.cesswi.org, which involves a $200 application fee and $75 exam fee. The application approval time is typically about 30-45 days. We recommend waiting to schedule the proctored exam until the application is approved. Students are responsible to assure this application is approved by a CESSWI organization prior to the Exam and that a hardcopy Letter of Approval is available on the exam date!
