Erosion & Sediment Control in Road Const - Kelowna - NC20BESD010X01
Building Erosion and Sediment Control into Road Design and Construction - Kelowna
This course emphasizes the practices and field skills utilized to evaluate and manage water quality objectives in the planning, location, design, construction (equipment operators & supervisors), maintenance and deactivation of resource roads in BC. Safety, economic and ecological considerations (i.e. sediment management to protect water quality) are incorporated into the learning outcomes.

Participants will be given a course evaluation to complete at the end of the course, which will be used to improve the course on a regular basis.
