Dust Control Violations
Cost $75K Per Day
“Air district cited us for $45K because our dust control log had 3 days of gaps. We watered the site every day but could not prove it. POD logs every pass with GPS and timestamp.”
— Environmental Compliance Manager, Earthwork Contractor
The Challenge
Before POD
Water truck logs are a joke
The driver writes watered site 3x on a napkin. No times, no routes, no wind speed records. When the air district asks for documentation, you have nothing defensible.
Wind events trigger violations
Wind picks up at 2 PM. Did you increase watering frequency? Did you shut down dust-generating activities? Without documentation the answer is no.
Permit conditions are complex
Your SWPPP or dust control permit has 15 specific requirements. Paper logs cannot prove compliance with each condition on each day.
$75K per day adds up fast
One week of citations is $375K. Most sites get multiple violations per citation. The cost of poor documentation dwarfs the cost of good tracking.
