Designing Permanent Erosion and Sediment Control Systems
Development of land, whether it is for a new highway or a new office building, requires the re-contouring of terrain. And as such, requires a redistribution of drainage patterns. This change in the land creates the potential for long term erosion through storm events that occur during the life of the project. To prevent long term erosion, permanent erosion and sediment control system need to be developed as an integral part of the projects’ designs. The primary goals of this interactive online course are to familiarize Engineers, Architects and Contractors with the design and application of different Best Management Practices (or BMPs for short) in the design of Permanent Erosion and Sediment Control.
