EROSION CONTROL SERVICES

CSSI's erosion controls include blankets, mats, and sediment control devices. Materials used for erosion controls are straw, straw & coconut blending, aspen wood fiber, recycled polypropylene fibers, silk fencing, sub-mats, and hydraulic wood fiber mulch. Applications of erosion controls include utility transmission, golf course construction, residential development, slope stabilization, commercial development, landfill, and highway construction, and urban drainage. The practice of preventing or controlling wind or water erosion in agriculture, land development, and construction is an ongoing battle in the Gulf Coast region. This sometimes involves the creation of a physical barrier, such as vegetation or rock, to absorb some of the energy of the wind or water that is causing the erosion. Effective erosion controls are important techniques in preventing water pollution and soil loss. Erosion control may arise in natural areas, agricultural settings, or urban environments, the latter of which is often characterized as storm water runoff erosion.
