Here the group was led by Mr. Carl Noffke, who first explained the applications of various soil erosion mitigation measures. The group was then shown how soil erosion control measures, such as erosion control blankets and logs, were produced. Lastly, a practical demonstration of an improved hydroseeding method concluded the trip.
