I work for a municipality, authority, or local government and install and repair water and sewer lines and other infrastructure components. Do I need training and certification?
Yes. Any land disturbance work you perform resulting in exposing soil including excavating, trenching, digging, clearing, grubbing, grading, and other erosion susceptible activities most likely warrants you to attend the Subcontractor Awareness Seminar (white card), understand however that you are not allowed to be the only person on the site unless you have taken the Level 1A course and pass an exit examination (blue card).
