Drone BMP inspections for construction sites in Clemson, SC

We document BMP and erosion control installations on construction sites throughout Pickens and Oconee counties. A drone inspection covers the full site perimeter and interior (silt fence condition, sediment basins, inlet protection, stabilized construction entrances, and slope protection) and delivers a geotagged photo report organized by BMP type.

Pickens and Oconee counties have active residential subdivision development, commercial construction along the Clemson/Central/Seneca corridor, and infrastructure projects tied to Clemson University growth. All disturbed-area construction over one acre in South Carolina requires NPDES permit coverage and routine BMP inspection documentation.

What a drone BMP inspection covers

• Silt fence: fabric condition, post spacing, toe embedment, overflow points
• Sediment basins and traps: pool elevation, outlet condition, sediment accumulation
• Inlet protection: wattle and filter sock condition, inlet coverage
• Stabilized construction entrance: stone depth and tracking pad condition
• Slope protection: erosion blanket, seeding, and rill formation
• Any BMP that has failed or is undersized relative to drainage area
