Save time and money on this job
- Time: SWPP photos timestamped before the inspector walk.
- Money: Stop-work and rework on silt failures cost more than proof fees.
- Habit: Line set and inlet shots every install run.
Erosion vendors get cc'd when sediment leaves the site. Without dated fence line photos, everyone argues weather versus maintenance.
Standard erosion lane steps focus on line set, inlet protection, and after-storm context without promising engineer sign-off.
Proof link on finish gives the GC a forwardable artifact before the inspector visit.
Erosion lane documents SWPP and silt before inspectors or storms argue.
