Construction practices can be divided into erosion prevention and sediment control practices. This page (Category) provides links to pages containing information on erosion prevention.
- Erosion prevention practices are designed to prevent or minimize erosion. Typical erosion prevention practices involve one or more of the following.
- Planning approaches that minimize the size of the bare soil area and the length of time disturbed areas are exposed to the elements – especially for long, steep slopes and easily erodible soils
- Diverting or otherwise controlling the location and volume of run-on flows to the site from adjacent areas
- Keeping concentrated flows in ditches stabilized with vegetation, rock, or other material
- Covering bare soil with vegetation, mulch, erosion control blankets, turf reinforcement mats, gravel, rock, plastic sheeting, soil binder chemicals, etc.
