This webinar will provide the essential background understanding that SWPPP Developers and Practitioners to understand and navigate these updated requirements. Attendees will learn about the requirements for dewatering and passive treatment systems and how to track the weather forecasts to identify a Qualified Precipitation Event (QPE). This timely webinar offers practical guidance to adapt stormwater management strategies in light of the new permit requirements, in pursuit of improved water quality outcomes.

Geomorphologists love erosion because it is a basic process in natural landscapes, but humans struggle to live with dynamic rivers and coasts, and there are many good reasons to stop erosion. However, managers are moving away from the view that all erosion of rivers and coasts is bad, and has to be controlled, toward a more nuanced approach. Sometimes the answer is not to control the erosion at all (e.g. the erosion is doing good, you make the problem worse, it is futile, it is a distraction from the real problem, and more), but sometimes to use land-use planning tools to give the rivers and coasts space to move. More and more we are accepting that vegetation is the key to long-term, sustainable management of erosion (nature-based solutions) but this just slows the rate of the erosion rather than eliminating it. I conclude by identifying some situations where we should control erosion when we don't (e.g. it can make flooding worse). In short, there are many reasons for us to learn to live with erosion.

Accurate prediction of soil erosion is a critical component of erosion and sediment control planning, stormwater compliance, and construction project design. RUSLE2 (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation Version 2) has become the preferred erosion prediction model for numerous transportation, infrastructure, and regulatory applications, including compliance with portions of California's Construction General Permit and certain Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) requirements. Despite its widespread use, many engineers and environmental professionals rely on RUSLE2 without fully understanding the scientific principles, assumptions, limitations, and regulatory context underlying the model. This webinar provides a technical foundation for understanding how RUSLE2 estimates soil loss, when it should be applied, and how it supports defensible erosion prediction and compliance decisions.

Erosion control practitioners are often called upon to work below the ordinary high water to complete projects in the areas regulated by the army corps of engineers. There is volumes of manuals for geomorphology and successful stream restoration and revegetation, and there is a depth of engineering manuals for large water bodies to install coffer cells and work off of barges. However the guidance on temporary works to divert small rivers, creeks and streams before and during construction begins is difficult to find. This presentation aims to fill some of that gap with strategies for working in live streams on the small or mid-size project that requires modification to the stream bed.
