The slope angle, slope length and soil strength will determine the erosion risk.

1. Low Erosion Risk, slopes <1:2
2. "Greening" Engineered Slopes
3. Medium to High Erosion Risk, Slopes about 1:1.5
4. Run Off and Sediment Control

Soil Erosion Control with Guaranteed Performance

Soil erosion can be caused by energy of impacting rain drops and run off, dealt with in this section, or by hydraulic flow, dealt with in the "Rivers" section.

Control of sediment and the management of surface water requires a positive approach to erosion as regulated by "The Water Framework Directive".

This page will help find the correct level of intervention for your level of risk.
