Even if you have established landscaping, there are still many opportunities to assess your site and develop strategies for reducing erosion and sedimentation, or create protocol for quickly identifying and reacting to issues as they arise. Potential strategies to consider include:

Develop a schedule for regularly checking and clearing stormwater infrastructure including roof drains, gutters, downspouts and drainage ditches to ensure proper functioning prior to storm events.Perform site assessments during and after storm events to confirm proper drainage. Develop and implement solutions to any problems observed.Peform routine cleaning of sedimentation sources, such as plant materials on paved surfaces.Perform routine cleaning of garbage, litter and cigarette butts from paved areas.Perform slope stabilization and groundcover maintenance as part of regular landscaping activities.
