Erosion & Sediment Control Plans (ESCP)

Environment Restoration Solutions develops erosion and sediment control plans (ESCP) that form the foundation of responsible land disturbance, guiding how sites manage soil movement and water runoff throughout every stage of works. Our team creates site-specific plans that reflect real ground conditions, regulatory requirements and project scale, helping construction companies, councils and landowners meet compliance obligations with confidence.


Backed by CPESC and RSP-ESC qualifications, we combine technical expertise with practical field experience to produce plans that are accurate and workable. Available Australia-wide, Environment Restoration Solutions delivers erosion and sediment control planning built for long-term land stability and environmental protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is an erosion and sediment control plan?

    An erosion and sediment control plan (ESCP) is a document outlining the measures used to manage soil erosion and sediment runoff on a construction or land disturbance site. It identifies site risks and sets out practical controls to protect waterways, neighbouring land and drainage systems during works.

  • Why are erosion and sediment control plans important?

    These plans help prevent soil loss, water pollution and damage to surrounding land during construction or earthworks. Without proper planning, sediment runoff can affect waterways, harm ecosystems and lead to costly rework, regulatory breaches or project delays.

  • What does an SWMP include?

    A typical SWMP includes a site assessment, identification of soil and water risks, proposed control measures such as diversion drains or sediment traps, staging details, and ongoing monitoring and maintenance requirements to keep controls effective throughout the project.

Soil & Water Management Plans (SWMP)

At Environment Restoration Solutions, we start every plan with a thorough site assessment, examining soil characteristics, topography, drainage patterns and nearby waterways or sensitive environmental areas. Using these findings, our team develops tailored soil and water management plans that identify key risks and outline the specific measures required, including sediment controls, water diversion structures and stabilisation techniques suited to the site.


To finish, we check each plan against relevant regulatory guidelines to support approval processes and practical on-site implementation. We also detail monitoring and maintenance requirements, ensuring soil and water risks are managed consistently from early earthworks through to project completion and long-term site stability.
