Hey guys. I had a question concerning erosion control. I wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the home building heading. But, I am just about ready to pull the permits to get my new house started. One of the forms I have to fill out is about erosion control and how I am going to protect the land from dirt/mud running off. On the form, it has four boxes that you must check one indicating the method of erosion control you will employ. One of the boxes has a larger box beside it to draw your method if you are not going to employ one of their options.
My question is can a field that is terraced (berms) be considered erosion control. I mean I thought that was what berms were for anyhow. The field is terraced with existing grass. I would think that through four terraces, I should be covered.
So what do you think? Is a terraced field erosion control?
Thanks, Bryan
