Sediment management guidelines
Sediment management guidelines refer to practices designed to control and maintain sediment in rivers, lakes, and other water bodies. They aim to prevent excessive sediment accumulation, which can harm aquatic habitats, affect water quality, and impair navigation. These guidelines involve monitoring sediment levels, using erosion control techniques, and implementing sustainable land use practices. By managing sediments effectively, we protect ecosystems, enhance water clarity, and reduce flooding risks, ensuring a healthier environment for both wildlife and human communities.
