Debris Basins

Debris Basins is a type of sediment trapping structure designed to intercept and retain coarse sediment, debris flows, and landslide materials in mountainous watersheds, distinguished from other erosion control features by its large storage capacity and intermittent need for mechanical removal of accumulated material.
