What Drives Cost?

  • Number of SCMs on site
  • Device type and size
  • Access and terrain
  • Mowing inclusion
  • Regulatory reporting requirements

What Drives Cost?

Poorly maintained SCMs increase the risk of regulatory violations, costly repairs, and enforcement actions. Routine maintenance protects compliance, infrastructure lifespan, and downstream waterways. Routine maintenance is far less expensive than corrective repairs or enforcement-driven remediation.

Why Clearwater?

We remain locally owned, responsive, and focused on compliance, documentation, and long-term asset protection — not volume-driven service models. Our clients rely on us to maintain compliance, reduce risk, and avoid costly surprises.
