Illinois Erosion Control Course

Course Description

Throughout the U.S. and the world, erosion is one of the leading contributors to water impairment. Erosion is the process by which soil particles are dislodged by water or wind.  There is a natural rate of erosion on all soils across the planet, this course drives home how to address the artificially increased rate of erosion due to soil disturbance on a construction site. 

This course covers erosion and how it occurs; impacts of erosion on the environment and the economy; the factors that affect erosion; information on vegetation establishment; topsoil and fertilizers; mulch and compost; rolled erosion control devices; and surface roughening.
