Collect surface runoff water, treat the water and settle it 5. Utilize baffles, skimmers, and alternative check dams to reduce sediment loss and turbidity control 6. Emphasis on quick establishment of ground covers 7. Utilize matting that protects the bank while not risking birds and reptiles 8. Incorporate bank stabilization methods that quickly establishes rootmass throughout the channel bank.
