by Leon Rowlands, from the Community

10+

Assess erosion and sediment control performance across active worksites with this ESC audit template. Review water contamination risks, erosion minimisation, stormwater flow management, and sediment capture including basin status, dewatering limits, and site access controls. Record overall ratings, findings, and corrective actions. Evaluate process and adaptive management, confirm site specific ESC plans, and verify monitoring, reporting, and staff awareness of legal obligations. Use this checklist to drive compliance and improve environmental outcomes.

ESC Audit MBRC V2 Checklist
This ESC audit checklist supports council and contractor teams in assessing erosion and sediment control performance on MBRC construction projects. It covers water contamination risks, erosion minimisation, stormwater flow management, and sediment capture, including sediment basin operation, dewatering limits for TSS and pH, and stable flow paths per IECA guidance. The template also reviews site ESC plans, monitoring and adaptive management processes, and training and awareness obligations under environmental legislation.

Erosion and Sediment Control Checklist
Use this erosion and sediment control checklist to assess environmental controls on active worksites. Verify site specific ESC plans, staging, and qualified preparation. Review sediment basins, dewatering, stormwater diversion, erosion controls on steep areas, and maintenance status. Confirm permits for works in waterways, monitoring programs, reporting of non compliance, and corrective actions. Document soil exposure limits, flow path design, and basin sizing. Capture photos, add comments, and sign off inspection findings.

Spiecapag Weekly Erosion and Sediment Control Checklist
This weekly erosion and sediment control checklist helps site teams inspect and maintain controls across pipeline and civil construction projects. Verify right of way access is clean, ESC materials are available, dust is minimized, and clean water is diverted appropriately. Check for scour in drainage lines, signs of erosion from site activities, and confirm soil and mulch stockpiles are positioned away from waterways. Ensure sediment controls are installed, maintained, and functioning, and that dirty water is contained and not discharged off site. Review pre disturbance controls, sediment trap and sump capacity, wash down bay sediment handling, and readiness for forecast rain events. Confirm soil management complies with the primary ESC plan and that progressive plans are developed where needed.
