COURSE TITLE: Construction Site Storm Water Control (Comprehensive)
COURSE NO: C09-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Construction Site Storm Water Control (Comprehensive)
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course explains how to prevent erosion due to site stormwater runoff from affecting the aquatic life and hydraulic characteristics of water.

 

Erosion and sedimentation related to construction site storm water runoff can significantly affect the aquatic population and hydraulic characteristics of the receiving waters. Alterations in hydraulic characteristics of streams receiving runoff include higher peak flow rates, increased frequency and duration of bankfull and subbankfull flows, increased occurrences of downstream flooding, and reduced baseflow levels.

 

EPA recognizes that such alterations can be prevented by implementing an effective storm water management program.  Therefore the EPA published the Storm Water Phase II Rule on December 8, 1999, that describes a menu of Best Management Practices (BMP). “Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control” is one of the Best Management Practices that requires operators of small MS4s in urbanized areas to implement a storm water management program for the protection of wetlands and aquatic ecosystems, improved quality of receiving water bodies, conservation of water resources, flood control, and protection of public health.

 

This 9 PDH online course is applicable to municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors/workers, site developers, engineers, managers, and all other personnel involved in the implementation of runoff controls for storm water runoff from construction sites.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Types and methods of runoff control systems
  • Applicability
  • Siting and design criteria
  • Maintenance and cost considerations
  • Effectiveness and limitations
Course Document

In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review EPA’s Best Management Practice relating to “Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control”. This BMP addresses the following:

 

  • Runoff Control
  • Erosion Control
  • Sediment Control
  • Good Housekeeping

Course Quiz

Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of forty (40) questions to earn 9 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on this EPA publication.

The minimum passing score is 70%. There is no time limit on the quiz, and you can take it multiple times until you pass at no additional cost.

COURSE TITLE: Post Construction Storm Water Management - Structural BMP's
COURSE NO: C10-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Post Construction Storm Water Management - Structural BMP's
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course describes EPA's stormwater BMP for protecting streams receiving runoff from alterations in hydraulic and aquatic characteristics.

 

Erosion and sedimentation related to construction site storm water runoff can significantly affect the aquatic population and hydraulic characteristics of the receiving waters. Alterations in hydraulic characteristics of streams receiving runoff include higher peak flow rates, increased frequency and duration of bankfull and subbankfull flows, increased occurrences of downstream flooding, and reduced baseflow levels.

 

EPA recognizes that such alterations can be prevented by implementing an effective storm water management program.  Therefore the EPA published the Storm Water Phase II Rule on December 8, 1999, that describes a menu of Best Management Practices (BMP). Post Construction Storm Water Management in New Development and Redevelopment” is one of the Best Management Practices that requires operators of small MS4s in urbanized areas to implement a storm water management program for the protection of wetlands and aquatic ecosystems, improved quality of receiving water bodies, conservation of water resources, flood control, and protection of public health.

 

This 10 PDH  online course is applicable to municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors/workers, site developers, engineers, managers, and all other personnel involved in the implementation of structural best management practices for post construction storm water management.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Types and methods of structural bmp for storm water management
  • Applicability
  • Siting and design criteria
  • Maintenance and cost considerations
  • Effectiveness and limitations
Course Document

In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review EPA’s “Structural BMP” section of the “Post Construction Storm Water Management in New Development and Redevelopment”. This section of the BMP addresses the following:

  • Dry Extended Detention Ponds
  • Wet Ponds
  • Infiltration Trenches
  • Porous Pavements
  • Bioretention
  • Sand and Organic Filters
  • Storm Water Wetlands
  • Grassed Swales
  • Grassed Filter Strips
  • Catch Basins
  • In-line Storage
  • Manufactured Products for Storm Water Inlets

COURSE TITLE: Ethics, Professionalism and Disciplinary Actions: Case Studies
COURSE NO: LE1-003
Ethics, Professionalism and Disciplinary Actions: Case Studies
Course Highlights

In this online engineering PDH course, ten case studies of actual enforcement actions taken by a state licensing board are presented. The cases have been selected to be representative of situations likely to exist in many states.  Board procedures and the types of enforcement actions available are shown by a variety of cases ranging from a geotechnical engineer who produced (within one hour and without visiting the site) a soils report, to an engineer who was unable to document his PDH's during a board audit.  The importance of being very careful about when to put "P.E." after one's name on a document also will become apparent.

 

Codes of ethics for engineers typically describe standards for professional behavior. The enforcement of those ethical standards that are inscribed into law lies with the licensing boards of state governments.

 

This 1 PDH online course is intended primarily for all engineers seeking to deepen their understanding of what constitutes ethical and professional engineering behavior and how such behavior is enforced by the licensing board.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the format of enforcement decrees issued by a state licensing board
  • Knowing the ten different types of licensing violations
  • Understanding the investigative process of the board, as it attempts to determine the validity of complaints brought before it
  • Learning about the types of enforcement actions available to the board
