Borrow Pit Stabilization

Photograph of erosion as a result of a small amount of runoff. Diversion protects this borrow pit from overhead water, yet erosion is occuring in this highly erosive alluvial soil. Before the protecting diversion was contructed a gully 30' wide as deep as the pit (about 30') had formed at the NE corner of this pit and was extending into adjoining cropland field. Although this gully was filled and overhead water diverted erosion is in progress.
