"I saw the new web site up–dates today in brief. I looked at the reveg section and scanned the plant materials for biotechnical application and have an addition to the list if you wish."

Erosion's frequently asked questions
 "Soil erosion is second only to population growth as the biggest environmental problem the world faces," said David Pimentel, professor of ecology at Cornell.1 "Yet, the problem, which is growing ever more critical, is being ignored because who gets excited about dirt?"

 Dirt, said Bainbridge Environmental Conference organizer Connie Waddington, "is something you don’t really think about on a day–to–day basis." Yet, she said, ignoring dirt has contributed to the downfall of empires. "Some civilizations disappeared because they didn’t take soil seriously."

 Erosion of this fragile ecosystem has been a problem long before the oil spill that threatens fragile, resource–rich Louisiana wetlands.

Flood & Erosion Control
www.erosioncontrolforum.com offers an overview of these global issues, with links to resources that provide remedies to promote responsible land stewardship.
  1. Your website is unaffiliated with any manufacturer or firm, and thus provides non–competitive useful, applicable information to persons from natural resources, land management agencies, landowners, businessmen, and regular folks.
  2. The ultimate goal is to un–earth the erosion & sediment control method(s) that decontaminates polluted soils and improves the speed and cost effectivness of remediation, essential for sustaining plants and soil organisms, and recharging surface and ground water supplies.
Your solution is guaranteed via these strategies:
• Index

 Coastal erosion laws " draw from and are influenced by principles of environmentalism, including ecology, conservation, stewardship, responsibility and sustainability. Areas of concern in environmental law include air quality, water quality, global climate change, agriculture, biodiversity, species protection, pesticides and hazardous chemicals, waste management, remediation of contaminated lands and brownfield sites, smart growth, sustainable development, impact review, and conservation, stewardship and management of public lands and natural resources." 2

• Practices

Stormwater runoff is rain and snowmelt that flows over land and does not soak into the ground. Construction, clearing or changes in land configuration can increase the volume of runoff, causing pollutants to enter...
Water Quality Statutes & Administrative Rules enjoin “Best Management Practices”, a collection of structural measures and vegetative practices which will provide effective erosion and sedimentation methods.
It’s important to identify precursory signals (e.g., changes in sea surface temperature resulting in coastal erosion, soil moisture, and snow cover) associated with carbon capture and storage.
Biological shore protection techniques are comprised of living and/or organic materials, such as native grasses, sedges and forbs; live stakes and posts; jute netting; and coir fiber rolls and mats
 Soil engineers and environmental specialists focus on the removal of pollution or contaminants from erosional media such as soil, groundwater, sediment, or surface water for the general protection of human health and the environment : methods that control accelerated soil erosion that releases about 15 million metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere in the U.S. alone.
 Preventive eco–restoration tactics are important in preventing the water pollution and soil loss that may arise in natural areas, agricultural settings or urban environments, the latter of which is often characterized as stormwater runoff.
 Landslides / mudslides resources increase the factor of safety against failure on an existing slope or mitigates shallow slope failures. The method is most applicable in the weathered colluvial surface of a rock slope that tends to fail during the rainy season, or in areas with expansive soils where the zone of water causes the upper seasonal soils to become weak due to seasonal drying and wetting.
 The roots of riparian trees and shrubs help hold streambanks in place, preventing erosion. Riparian vegetation also traps sediment and pollutants, helping keep the water clean.
 Your forum presents stategies that explore the use of vegetation to stabilize slopes & curb erosion–method (s) to keep soil on the job and out of the streambed (s).

Biologs slope stabilization As EPA regulations become more stringent, your handbook of erosion materials & stormwater controls provides a complete line of supplies that control soil erodibility and filter sediment thus preventing ’aggradation’ (raising of the river bed due to sediment deposition).
 Erosion control structures offer technical assistance to property owners, communities, local governments, businesses, soil scientists, groundwater hydrologists and others who produce detailed plans to establish high benchmarks in sustainability by destroying organic contaminants in soil and ground water.
 Your answers to Dust Control, Stockpile Capping, Hydroseeding and much more, provides technical assistance to property owners, communities, local governments, businesses, the construction industry using :
  • solutions that reduce maintenance costs and improve the performance of paved and unpaved surfaces.
  • ECBs (erosion control blakets) – ideal erosion control products for the short-term challenge of establishing vegetation in low to moderate erosion applications
  • construction erosion practices utilized directly on slow moving slides to resist soil creep and improve sediment control measures.
Whether your concern is allowing runoff & sediment to despoil water, wastewater treatment, conservation of the land or environmental protection, your forum of erosion (erosivity) solutions strives to be your best knowledge base available.

  Consult local regulations–many communities now have strict methods for erosion control for certain land practices.

So, grab a cup of coffee and browse as long as you like.
