PLEASE NOTE:

On January 09, 2013 MDE adopted the '2011 Maryland Standards and Specifications for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control'.  Accordingly, the RPC class has been temporarily taken down for revision.  We anticipate having the new presentation and test available by April 15, 2013.  We apologize for any inconvenience.  Please check back often.
