Erosion prevention practices
Erosion prevention practices are designed to prevent or minimize erosion. Below are photo galleries for several erosion prevention practices.
Sediment control practices
- Perimeter control
- Vehicle tracking BMPs
- Outlet energy dissipation
- Check dams (ditch checks, ditch dikes)
- Storm drain inlet protection
- Buffer zones
- Dewatering (chemical treatment, sediment filtration)
- Berms (soil, woodchips)
- Sediment basins and traps
