Roadside erosion is one of the largest causes of pollution to surface
waters in northeastern New York. Bare and destabilized roadside
ditches contribute much of the sediment found in surface waters.
Furthermore, improperly constructed and maintained roadside ditches
increase maintenance costs and needs in the long run.
These field days will focus on new and improved techniques and
products to reduce erosion and sediment movement from municipal
roadsides.
