Participants will see on-site structural erosion control demonstrations from 10-11 a.m. at an Urban Renewal construction site, according to a news release.

Reducing or preventing sediment from leaving a large construction project takes expertise, planning, proper erosion control installation, maintenance and management.

If you use erosion-control blankets made of biodegrable material, they will eventually disappear leaving the plants to control the problem.

State and local officials are worried that if erosion control measures aren't put in place for at-risk areas, some properties in the Carr Fire burn area could suffer erosion damage.
