This online engineering PDH course addresses EPA's BMP for the protection of wetlands and aquatic ecosystems, protection of public health, flood control and more.
Erosion and sedimentation related to construction site storm water runoff can significantly affect the aquatic population and hydraulic characteristics of the receiving waters. Alterations in hydraulic characteristics of streams receiving runoff include higher peak flow rates, increased frequency and duration of bankfull and subbankfull flows, increased occurrences of downstream flooding, and reduced baseflow levels.
EPA recognizes that such alterations can be prevented by implementing an effective storm water management program. Therefore the EPA published the Storm Water Phase II Rule on
This 2 PDH online course is applicable to municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors/workers, site developers, engineers, managers, and all other personnel involved in the implementation of runoff controls for storm water runoff from construction sites.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Types and methods of runoff control systems
- Applicability
- Siting and design criteria
- Maintenance and cost considerations
- Effectiveness and limitations
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review EPA’s Best Management Practice relating to the “Runoff Control” section of the “Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control”. This section of the BMP addresses the following runoff control methods:
- Land Grading
- Permanent Diversions
- Preserving Natural Vegetation
- Construction Entrances
- Check Dams
- Filter Berms
- Grass-Lined Channels
- Riprap
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions to earn 2 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on the “Runoff Control” section of this EPA publication.
Upon successful completion of the quiz, print your Certificate of Completion instantly. (Note: if you are paying by check or money order, you will be able to print it after we receive your payment.) For your convenience, we will also email it to you. Please note that you can log in to your account at any time to access and print your Certificate of Completion.
This online engineering PDH course presents EPA's BMP for identifying and eliminating non-stormwater discharges to storm sewers to improve runoff stormwater quality.
Non-storm water discharges are typically the result of unauthorized connections of sanitary or process wastewater drains to storm sewers. These connections are common, yet often go undetected. Non-storm water discharges can include discharges of process water, air conditioner condensate, non-contact cooling water, vehicle wash water, or sanitary waste.
EPA recognizes that these discharges are significant sources of pollutants, and unless regulated by an NPDES permit, they are also illegal. Therefore the EPA published the Storm Water Phase II Rule on
This 5 PDH online course is applicable to municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors/workers, site developers, engineers, managers, and all other personnel involved in the detection and elimination of illicit discharges.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Types and methods of illicit discharges
- Applicability
- Siting and design criteria
- Maintenance and cost considerations
- Failing Septic Systems
- Industrial/Business Connections
- Recreational Sewage
- Sanitary Sewer Overflows
- Identifying Illicit Connections
- Wastewater Connections to the Storm Drain System
- Illegal Dumping
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty five (25) question ns to earn 5 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on this EPA publication.
Upon successful completion of the quiz, print your Certificate of Completion instantly. (Note: if you are paying by check or money order, you will be able to print it after we receive your payment.)

This online engineering PDH course presents examples of different permitting approaches that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found in a nationwide review of National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits that specifically address linear, department of transportation (DOT) municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s).
Stormwater discharge is an issue which requires both proactivity and reactivity; the MS4 permits provide a framework within which projects can adhere to practices aimed at reducing the amount of pollutants found in stormwater discharge which makes its way into the environment.
This course features useful information and excerpts from the MS4 permits of many different States. It uses these excerpts to illustrate key points regarding each section of the packet. It also features broader tips which apply to general projects which may be susceptible to pollutants in stormwater discharge.
This 7 PDH online course is applicable to civil, environmental, stormwater management and sustainability engineers as well as other technical personnel interested in learning more about MS4 permit regulations.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the key idea behind MS4 permit requirements
- Familiarizing with the establishment of the stormwater management program
- Learning about the permit requirements for facilities, roadways and storm sewer infrastructure
- Familiarizing with the Project Development and Active Construction requirements
- Familiarizing with the various Best Management Practices of the different DOTs

This online engineering PDH course will establish the relationship between the actions of a licensing board for professional engineers and the Constitutional right of free speech.
This course discusses the background and findings of a legal case that arose when a state licensing board for professional engineers attempted to restrict the right of an engineer from speaking about a public safety issue. Actual legal documents and associated correspondence are discussed, and their implications analyzed.
The 1 PDH online course is intended for all registered professional engineers wanting to know about the relation between constitutionally protected free speech and the powers of a licensing board for professional engineers.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the value of free speech in discovering the best solution to technical problems
- Realizing the difference between protected and unprotected speech
- Knowing an example in which the actions of a PE licensing board was limited by the Constitutional right of free speech
- Familiarizing with the meaning of a board letter that announces the opening of an investigation
- Understanding the meaning and use of a Notice to Impose a Civil Penalty
- Understanding the significance of working outside the context of an employment or contractual relationship
