At Water Quality and Erosion Control of Tennessee (WQECTN), our work starts with one simple but powerful goal: protect local waterways by keeping stormwater clean and free of pollutants. Every project we take on is rooted in that commitment. From permitting and inspections to ongoing compliance support, we help construction professionals meet environmental standards with confidence.
Construction sites have the potential to impact surrounding land and water if not properly managed. Soil erosion, sediment runoff, and improper waste disposal can all lead to pollutants entering rivers, streams, and lakes. That’s where we come in. WQECTN provides the oversight, experience, and practical guidance needed to prevent pollution before it starts.
Our certified team conducts NPDES inspections and supports the development of Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) that are tailored to each site. We work with everyone from national homebuilders to small local contractors, helping them navigate state and federal requirements while minimizing environmental impact. Our staff holds Level I and Level II certifications in erosion prevention and sediment control, ensuring each inspection is performed to the highest standard.
But compliance is only the beginning. At WQECTN, we believe in building partnerships with our clients. We don’t just perform inspections and move on. We help you understand how and why these systems matter, and how to implement lasting solutions that protect natural resources. That means helping your team stay ahead of violations, reduce site delays, and avoid costly environmental damage.
Every SWPPP we help implement, every inspection we complete, and every conversation we have is aimed at one thing: protecting water quality in Tennessee and beyond. It’s not just our profession, it’s our passion. When you work with WQECTN, you’re not only staying compliant—you’re doing your part to keep our communities and ecosystems healthy.
Clean water supports everything from public health to agriculture and wildlife. Our job is to make sure that as development continues across the region, it doesn’t come at the expense of our natural environment. We’re proud to be the team construction professionals trust to keep stormwater clean and pollution free.
