Regarding
PART 91, SOIL EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL (SESC),
of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (NREPA),
1994 PA 451, as Amended

Why is erosion and sediment control important?
Sediment is the greatest pollutant by volume impacting our lakes, streams, and wetlands. Sediment is the product of uncontrolled erosion. Everyone in Michigan is affected by erosion and off-site sedimentation.

Erosion Control, and Nanotechnologies (NT)

Erosion Control Forum – Information on erosion control devices and resources Skip to content Abstract Nanotechnology (NT) The National Nanotechnology Initiative defines nanotechnology as understanding and controlling matter at dimensions between approximately 1 and 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable novel applications. Introduction Nanotechnology offers the potential to effectively treat contaminants in situ, avoiding excavation or the need to pump contaminated water out of the ground. The process begins with nanoparticles being injected into a contaminated aquifer via an injection well. Role of Nanotechnology Nanotechnology plays a crucial role in improving wind turbine performance...
