The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires the implementation of erosion control BMPs during construction to reduce the amount of pollutants that enter our waterways and protect our environment.
Favland can help you comply with these regulations by providing SWPPP management services and developing an effective erosion control plan tailored to your construction project. With our expertise in environmental consulting, we can guide you through the entire process and ensure that your project meets all of the necessary requirements.
Why Is Erosion Control Important?
Erosion control helps to prevent soil loss, which is essential for maintaining soil fertility and ecosystem health. By regulating water flow and holding nutrients in the ground, native topsoil is protected, allowing native vegetation to thrive. Additionally, erosion control measures prevent sediment and pollutants from being carried away by stormwater runoff, which can cause harm to aquatic life and contaminate local water sources. By preventing rapid stormwater discharge, erosion control can also help reduce the risk of flooding in nearby areas.
Erosion Control Solutions
Our erosion control services start with an inspection of the area and then a drafting or review of your existing SWPPP to discover ways to implement BMPs into your erosion control plan.
Some of our erosion control services include:
- Soil Stabilization
- Erosion Control Matting and Blankets
- Hydroseeding
- Silt Fencing
- Wattles
- Ripraps
- Tree Protection
- Inlet Protection
- Straw Blowing
- Retention Pond Maintenance
- SWPPP Inspections and Reviews
It’s important to ensure that construction projects don’t negatively impact the environment and nearby habitats. By working with builders and conservation districts, Favland can help maintain a balance between development and preservation.
It’s important to apply erosion control measures to any areas that may be at risk of soil erosion and stormwater runoff. Favland can apply erosion control services to graded surfaces, roads, gravel projects, and any commercial construction projects available.

BMP Stormwater Management
It’s important to not only prevent erosion during construction but also to restore the landscape afterwards to minimize the environmental impact of the project. By prioritizing vegetation restoration and landscape preservation, you’re contributing to the long-term health of the environment and surrounding habitats.
