Keep in Mind
- Erosion and sediment control measures must be in place before any clearing or grading begins. These temporary controls help contain sediment on your property and keep it out of our storm sewers, lakes, ponds, and wetlands.
- Once your control measures are in place, call Natural Resources at (952) 953-2464 to schedule an erosion control inspection prior to the start of your project.
