IECA Announces Partnership With Texas Association Of Builders

The International Erosion Control Association (IECA) has recently completed an agreement with the Texas Association of Builders (TAB) to be the exclusive provider of TAB's "SWPPP It or Sweat It" contractor's stormwater training course. IECA will deliver the "SWPPP It or Sweat It" course online and in a live format. It will also provide training for IECA members who wish to instruct this course.

IECA's objective in this partnership is to create opportunities to train members of the Texas Association of Builders on erosion, sediment control and stormwater related issues using expertise found within IECA in these fields. Brock Peters, CISEC, IECA's Technical Vice President, had this to say of the partnership, "The Texas Association of Builders has taken an unprecedented step in recognizing the importance of assisting building industry compliance by partnering with IECA. The TAB "SWPPP It or SWEAT It" stormwater compliance training course is an opportunity for two great associations to combine efforts to meet a common goal. On behalf of IECA, I cannot express enough the excitement of IECA being the exclusive training provider for TAB. As a stormwater contractor and consultant that serves the building industry, I am personally elated."
