Why Erosion and Sediment Control?

Soil erosion degrades landscapes and limits its use and productivity for wildlife, agriculture, and shortens the life of engineered projects such as highways and reservoirs. The sediment laden runoff coming from active erosion damages aquatic life by covering fish habitat, and reducing biodiversity and water quality. Erosion and sediment control reduces and prevents these impacts leading to a healthier and more diverse environment of protected land and clean air and water.

Environmental regulators now require mitigation and environmental protection plans for many development projects. Soil erosion and sedimentation is one of the more visible environmental effects of development if not properly mitigated and controlled. MCH provides high quality erosion protection measures with a proven track record recognized by federal and provincial regulators. MCH’s credibility can go along way to not only reducing erosion with assured results, but preventing work stoppages and extensive remedial measures enforced by an environment officer.

Hydroseeding

Hydro seeding is an economical and efficient way of seeding large exposed areas using water as a carrier. A mulch is added to ensure uniform mixing which has a number of other benefits once the solution is on the ground.

Steep Slopes

Hydraulic products are ideally suited for steep to extreme slopes where erosion control can have physical limitation. BFM and ECB can be applied to slopes where soil stabilization is required.
