Indot erosion control handbook

This is considered an open book exam. Participants who sign up for the initial training are provided one attempt to take the exam. If they fail, they will need to sign up for the StormWater Retake Exams. Retake Exams will give the participant an additional two chances to successfully pass the StormWater Qualification Final Exam.

If, after a total of three attempts, the participant has not passed exam, they will need to wait until the following year to enroll in the training and attempt to qualify again. An estimated 10 to 20 hours are required to work through the Modules and Exam.

The estimated range of learning time varies between participants due to the volume of information covered and the ability for each participant to work at their own pace. What this means though is the participant can choose how fast or how slow within the given deadlines to complete the training. It is expected that some individuals can complete the training and the exam within 2 to 3 business days dependent on motivation. However, due to the amount of information needing absorbed, we are not restricting individuals to complete the training immediately after launch.

The three-month window is designed to give individuals room to pace themselves and work at a recommended pace of one or two modules a day. All training and exams need to be complete by the end of this three-month window.

Below is a list of Training Rollout Dates. There will be eight trainings in A new training session will be available roughly every seven weeks. This schedule is designed to allow individuals a chance to join the training that fits best into their schedule.

Additionally, if an individual messes the registration cut off, the next opportunity will be less than two months out. All trainings will close three months after their launch date. If you do not have the training completed by Midnight on the date the training window closes, you will not be able to continue to access the training and will need to pay to join a new training group. The table above is a general guideline to help people manage their time since they will be working at their own pace.

It will not prevent anyone from progressing through the information more quickly. The Final Exam will open for a participant as soon as they have completed their Training Modules.

All Completed Training Modules will remain available to participants as a reference item even after the Modules and Exams have closed.

Renewal participants will be given the full three months to complete the Training Modules and built-in Knowledge Checks. There is no final Exam for renewal participants.

It flows from rooftops, over paved streets, sidewalks and parking lots, across bare soil and lawns and into storm drains and streams. As it flows, runoff collects and transports litter, soil, pet waste, road salt and sand, pesticides, fertilizer, oil and grease, soaps and detergents, and a host of other pollutants. Storm water drains directly into nearby creeks, streams and rivers without receiving treatment at a wastewater treatment plant. Storm water runoff is major contributor to water pollution nationwide and one of the great challenges of pollution control.

Untreated runoff degrades waterways. It affects water quality and the environment and reduces how much we can use streams, rivers and lakes for fishing, swimming and as a source for drinking water. Litter and sediment can also reduce storm drain and stream capacity, which contributes to flooding. Public actions make a huge impact. Learn how you can reduce storm water pollution today and protect our environment now and for the future.

INDOT storm water technical resources provide specifications, guidelines and parameters for best management practices in reducing storm water runoff pollution in agency operations, and in road and facility construction and maintenance.

By helping identify pollution in pipes, ditches, on the side of the roadway, drains, or anywhere in INDOT right-of-way, INDOT can improve the safety for our traveling public and for our employees at worksites as well as clean up our streams.
