5. Slope Protection

The site area was divided into 10 sub-areas based on site topography.

5. Slope Protection

Aim: find the most adequate Erosion Control Blanket

Assumptions:
the site has a surface covered with short grass (n= 0.15)
25-yr Storm Event assumed in Peak Discharge (cfs) calculations
