Summary
Sediments are one of the main nonpoint sources of pollution for lakes, rivers, and streams in the Inland Northwest. This publication shares strategies for protecting waters by seeding forest roads, skid trails, and landings. Tables specify ideal mixes of plants best suited for overstory, understory, and legumes, so not only is the environment protected, but wildlife and livestock find nourishment.
