Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook
Construction activities near streams, rivers, and lakes have the potential
to cause water pollution and stream degradation if erosion and sediment
controls are not properly installed and maintained. To effectively reduce
erosion and sediment impacts, Best Management Practices (BMPs) must be
designed, installed, and maintained at the construction site. This handbook
is a guide for protection of Tennessee waters through use of BMPs during
land-disturbing activities.
