Join us for our Stormwater Awareness Week Workshop today, Monday September 23rd, 12:00-1:00 PDT (or 2:00-3:00 EDT). In this FREE workshop, Jamie McCutchen, P.E. will present Pond + Skimmer + Filter = 90% TSS Removal Skimmers have become standard in most areas for sediment basins, but rarely used for post-construction. Recently completed research has shown that the use of surface dewatering in conjunction with a filter can aid in providing post-construction water quality and achieve over 90% TSS Removal, treat more of the annual rainfall and potentially reduce your pond size by 15% or more. Registration links for our workshop and all workshops are in the first comment. #stormwater #skimmer #stormwatermanagement #rymarwaterworks

Soil Erosion Behind Seawalls - Seawalls protect waterfront properties from erosion and flooding, but they can deteriorate over time. In particular, soil erosion behind seawalls is a critical issue. It can lead to structural failure if not addressed promptly. The Importance of Soil Stability Seawalls rely on the surrounding soil for support. When soil erodes behind a seawall, it compromises […]

How many ways can you think of to utilise coir mesh logs? Coir logs are indeed the multi-tool of erosion control and soil stability! Whilst coir logs are primarily designed to stop soil erosion, there are many other ways they can be successfully used to meet a range of challenges. Here are five clever ways to use coir logs: 🌱Placed end-to-end along slopes, you can create a terracing effect with the coir logs acting as mini 'retaining walls' for steep terrain. 🌧️Coir logs can create embankments or be buried across gullies to slow water flow and flooding. 🌈Insert coir logs lengthways to collect silt and slow water flow, giving waterways a chance to re-establish their natural habitat. 🌊Used along water edges they help increase stability and slow erosion. Fun fact! In these circumstances you can even plant into coir logs with water-loving species such as rushes and sedges. The coir will help keep the plants safe from soil erosion and allow them to establish right along the waters edge! Can you think of even more ways to use coir logs?

The upper Midwest, and specifically my hometown communities in SW Minnesota and SE South Dakota, have seen record-setting rainfall in recent weeks. Since these weather events and the needed resiliency measures are becoming more commonplace, designers and constructors need to change how they safeguard sites. Properly managing runoff and adhering to erosion and sediment control measures not only protects the environment but also prevents harm to construction projects. Learn about preventing erosion and sediment issues and maintaining sustainable and compliant construction sites. https://hubs.li/Q02D26pp0 #Water #ErosionControl #SedimentControl

Slope #Grid Applications Erosion Control | Slope Protection #Soil #erosion is a naturally occurring process on all land. The agents of soil erosion are water and wind, each contributing to a significant amount of soil loss every year. Hurricanes and other severe weather events increase the rate and magnitude of erosion. Cellular confinement system is an economical long-term solution consisting of a giant blanket of 3D connected #cells which fortifies the earth to prevent erosion, soil migration, and damaging shifting forces caused by water and wind. RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS INCLUDE: EMBANKMENT RESTORATION • SLOPES • GREEN ROOFS • CHANNELS • OVERPASSES • SWALES • ROADSIDE EMBANKMENT REINFORCEMENT • PORTS & MARINAS ECO-FRIENDLY • INEXPENSIVE • LOW MAINTENANCE • COMPLETE EROSION CONTROL SYSTEM • PERMANENT SOLUTION https://lnkd.in/da6jR4nq

Dams and spillways play a critical role in water resource management, flood control, and energy generation. Dams store water for irrigation, drinking water, and hydropower, while spillways safely control and release excess water to prevent overflow and flooding.
