Erosion and Sediment Control

I was able to capture this picture of a Water and Sediment Control Basin AKA - WASCOB, Little Dry Dam, and etc.  With several rainfall events over 3 inches, we are seeing more than our share of erosion.  This practice is good for controlling gullies and reducing the amount of sediment leaving the farm.  It is a good practice on short choppy slopes. The dark area has a fresh layer of sediment on it

Looks like a pretty effective sediment control method. Thanks for sharing!
