Description

Helicopter application of wood mulch will serve to prevent erosion, reduce runoff, and contribute towards revegetation.wood mulch has been shown to reduce peak flows and increase soil moisture which speedsrevegetation. By reducing overland flow from bare soils, the total sediment load and peak flowsto unstable stream reaches is also reduced. Unstable stream reaches are particularly vulnerableto further erosion. Large peak flows and sediments coming from the hillslope can amplify instreamerosion and lead to massive bank failures ultimately contributing to debris flows. This is aconcern not only for natural resources but also for property and lives. The areas treated under funding from BLM will provide
