Alabama Handbook for Erosion Control, Sediment Control and Stormwater Management on Construction Sites and Urban Areas
By:

The Alabama Soil and Water Conservation Committee, acting under authorities set forth in section 9-8-22 of the Code of Alabama 1975, printed the first edition of the Handbook in 1993. Its purpose was to aid land users, including developers, contractors, consultants, city, county and state planners and planning boards, other governmental officials, and homeowners in adequately addressing the soil erosion, sediment, and stormwater problems associated with land disturbing activities associated with non-agricultural development. The First Revision of the Handbook was completed in 2002. It added Chapter 9 and provided thirteen additional practices that were not in the original Handbook.
