Managing Erosion and Drainage: Effective Solutions

EROSION CONTROL SOLUTIONS

EROSION CONTROL BLANKETS

The removal of ground cover from job sites greatly increases the chance of erosion in the area.  Erosion Control Blankets from Enviroscape ECM work to help replace vegetation on disrupted land. Effective in both flat and sloped settings, Erosion Control Blankets are a sound solution for erosion prevention.

Erosion Control Blankets conform to land contours on slopes, shorelines, and drainage channels.

Erosion Control Blankets create a protected environment in prepared soil so that plants can take root.  Blankets are constructed of netting that is filled with straw, coconut, or other materials that aid in successful growth. Erosion Control Blankets conform to land contours on slopes, shorelines and in drainage channels.

There are many types of Erosion Control Blankets available and each has its own intentions and purposes for use. The following chart can help you determine which product is right for your project.

Flows are estimates. Shear = bench scale, unvegetated.

The blankets are anchored in place with purposefully designed pins or staples to help prevent blanket movement on even the steepest inclines.

Erosion Control Blankets are available from Drainage Solutions, Inc., along with pins, staples, staplers and staple guns.

DRAINAGE WATER MANAGEMENT

Drainage water management (DWM) lets farmers actively manage the water on their fields, both in times of surplus and deficit.

Inline Water Level Control Structures™ can be used to effectively manage the water table in fields, wetlands, ponds, and more.

The desired water level height is achieved by setting stoplogs within the structure. The use of the Inline Water Level Control Structure can allow for controlled release of outlet flow, retention of valuable nutrients, and effective flood mitigation.

Inlet Water Level Control Structures™ are designed to control the depth and volume of water within a wetland or pond by removing surface water. Stoplogs can be removed or added to achieve the desired water level height.

When installed after harvest, devices like Water Level Control Structures for DWM can bring about the following the next growing season: 

  • Potential Yield Increases
  • Reduced Risk During Weather Extremes
  • The Protection of Community Water Resources
  • Better Soil Health and Vegetative Growth
  • Reduced Nutrient Loss
  • Cleaner Water
Structures for water level control are available from Drainage Solutions, Inc. To learn more, call any of our Indiana locations or click here.

GIE EXPO + SHOW NEWLY RENOVATED GREEN SPACE FOR TEST DRIVING

One of GIE+EXPO's most attractive features for exhibitors and visitors alike is the 20+ acre outdoor demonstration area. The Kentucky Exposition Center is the only facility in the U.S. that offers such a large outdoor turf area just a few steps from the indoor exhibits. You can see the new products indoors, then head out to the demo park to try them for yourself and compare them with the competition.

Outdoor Demo Area Hours:
Thursday, October 21: 9 AM – 5 PM
Friday, October 22: 9 AM – 1 PM

Many exhibitors in this outdoor space will host competitions and games to encourage spirited use of their newest products. Plan to have fun and come away with a few grass stains during GIE+EXPO! Wear your most comfortable work shoes; there's a lot of ground to cover and grass to mow at this show.
