International Erosion Control Association
Our membership is comprised of dedicated professionals in erosion and sediment control, including soil scientists, engineers, botanists, biologists, developers, landscape architects, excavating contractors, landscapers, resource managers and a whole host of other individuals who find that commitment to reducing human-activity related erosion provides profound environmental improvement, lowered soil disturbance project costs, reduced resource loss, and occupational satisfaction/fulfillment.

Erosion control for our membership relates to fluid-generated soil loss, both liquid and gas in origin. It entails nearly every natural science and civil engineering discipline as well as the organizational and human resource skills of non-technically based individuals. Erosion control spans all mass soil movement activities, from agriculture to mining to forestry management to construction to name a few areas.

Our goal is to promote erosion control through existing and new technological developments.
