Use this excavation and trench verification checklist to plan and audit trenching work. Verify permits, SWMS, design and shoring, safe access and egress, barriers and edge protection, utility detection and protection, spoil placement, confined space considerations, groundwater and weather controls, emergency planning, overhead power lines, equipment separation, and daily geotechnical inspections. Capture noncompliances, corrective actions, and site details to improve compliance and reduce collapse, strike, and environmental risks.
