SOIL EROSION

SOIL EROSION(lack of vegetation / water diversion, etc.): This potential, or ongoing, problem is generally restricted to hillside properties or properties which have streams within their boundaries The inspector notes the movement of earth, or the potential for movement, on hillsides if this item is marked The inspector will also note this item if the banks of a stream or other waterway are washing away affecting the grounds, or areas near the grounds of the inspected property If erosion has occurred and is, or could become, a significant problem, it is recommended that you contact a Geologist or Soils Engineer for further evaluation. It may be sufficient to plant additional vegetation on the hillside. If conditions are extreme it may be necessary to provide concrete diversion swales or a retaining wall. Waterway erosion may necessitate backfilling banks. Be cautious with the use of concrete on stream banks. The improper placement or shape of concrete or gunite® can cause accelerated erosion on the opposite bank of a stream
