10+

A practical surveillance checklist aligned with RMS G40 to verify clearing and grubbing activities on civil road and bridge projects. Use it to confirm limits of clearing, exclusion zones, preservation of habitat trees, bridge area requirements, and removal of built structures. It covers erosion and sediment control setup per G36 and G38, grubbing depths, backfilling and vegetation, mulch production and stockpiling, plus G22 safety checks including SWMS, plant suitability, PPE, and operator competency. Track compliance, note nonconformances, and record follow up actions for NCRs and CARs.
