If you're involved in construction in Idaho, chances are you’ve heard about the Idaho Construction General Permit (CGP). This essential permit is required for any construction activity that disturbs more than one acre of land and results in the discharge of stormwater. But did you know that in order to stay compliant with the CGP, you need someone on-site who qualifies as a “Qualified Person”?
That’s where the Idaho Qualified Person (IQP) Course comes in.
Why the IQP Course Matters
Under the CGP, contractors must create and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). This plan includes erosion and sediment control strategies that protect Idaho’s waterways during construction activity. But developing a SWPPP isn’t enough, it must also be routinely inspected and maintained by someone who meets the CGP’s requirements for a Qualified Person.
The IQP Course is designed specifically to help you meet those requirements. Developed with Idaho’s environmental conditions and regulatory standards in mind, this course is the only Idaho-specific SWPPP inspector training available.
Convenient, On-Demand Training
The Idaho Qualified Person Course is offered 100% online, making it fully on-demand and self-paced. Whether you’re a busy contractor, project manager, or inspector, this flexible format allows you to complete the course on your schedule, at your own pace, from anywhere.
