Document accessible ends, barrel visibility, headwalls, erosion, blockage and follow-up needs. This checklist keeps the visible record, required verification and responsible follow-up together.
Document accessible ends, barrel visibility, headwalls, erosion, blockage and follow-up needs. Start with the exact inspection purpose and location, document only what the submitted evidence supports, and keep measurements, testing or professional determinations clearly marked for field review.
Identify the drainage asset, upstream/downstream context and verified location.
Capture the opening or flow path plus a wider contributing-area view.
Describe visible debris, erosion, displacement or standing water without guessing capacity.
Record weather, recent rainfall and access limitations when relevant.
Identify cleaning, CCTV, survey, hydraulic or structural follow-up separately.

Use a short finding title, identify the exact location and place the strongest evidence beside the written observation. Explain the recommended next step in practical order: verify, make safe when needed, correct the confirmed condition and retain completion evidence.
Record the jurisdiction, adopted edition, contract, company procedure or customer-supplied requirement that applies. A source link helps the reviewer locate the material; it does not prove that every requirement applies to the photographed condition.
Photo review cannot confirm underground condition, hydraulic capacity, concealed damage, water quality or system performance.
Confirm the current edition, jurisdiction and applicability before relying on a requirement.
