Rain didn’t help Landcare CSO Mark Robertson when he was working on erosion control at Jimenbuen… Aspart of the Upper Snowy Landcare Integrated Erosion Control project a flume is being built to decrease erosion at Crisps Creek near Jimenbuen.  Six inches of rain just as they were starting work gave Mark a perfect opportunity to see where the problem was!  The whole crossing flooded and the project was made all the more difficult due to the downpour.  But they battled on and have made great improvements to the site.  This is an integral part of the project and will be an ideal way to both showcase and test different erosion control methods.
