| | Each turbidity monitoring station should be equipped with a turbidity sonde, data logger, power supply, protective enclosure, and, where Species at Risk (SAR) are present, telemetry capabilities. Continuous turbidity monitoring should be maintained until the site has reached at least 80% effective permanent stabilization. Where continuous monitoring is not feasible, grab samples should be collected. To support interpretation of turbidity exceedances, precipitation data should be obtained from a rain gauge located within 5 km of the site. Clear protocols for responding to and reporting turbidity exceedances should be established for all sites with continuous monitoring. | | Each turbidity monitoring station should be equipped with a turbidity sonde, data logger, power supply, protective enclosure, and, where Species at Risk (SAR) are present, telemetry capabilities.

| | Timely maintenance of ESC practices is essential for demonstrating due diligence on construction sites. Repairs or replacements should be completed promptly - within 48 h, or sooner if there is imminent environmental risk. Where feasible, backup materials should be stored on-site to expedite maintenance. Maintenance tasks vary depending on the ESC practice and a list of maintenance tasks can be found for each BMP by clicking on the first column of table 1, 2, and 3 (above). General ESC maintenance tasks are listed in Table 4. | | Timely maintenance of ESC practices is essential for demonstrating due diligence on construction sites.
