Maine DEP Winter Best Management Practices for Soil Erosion

$30.00

Thursday, September 11, 2025
8:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Cumberland County SWCD
35 Main Street, Windham

Snacks and drinks provided!

Disturbing soil during winter can make it difficult to prevent erosion and control sediment on construction sites; many of the practices that are most effective during the growing season do not work well during the winter months. Here in Maine, cold weather can hinder adequate erosion and sedimentation control for up to half the year, so knowing appropriate treatments and practices for maintaining water quality can be key to a successful project.

Working in the winter requires extra planning, foresight, inspections, and materials to minimize the impact of these activities on our natural resources and water quality while ensuring compliance with federal, state, and local environmental regulations. This program will explore the options available for performing soil disturbance in the winter as well as highlighting the regulations that contractors need to comply with when performing winter work.

This class qualifies for 4 hours of Continuing Education Credit for individuals Certified in Erosion Control Practices by Maine DEP.
