Summary: It’s been nearly two years since the changes in the Chapter 102 Erosion Control Regulations. There have been many changes, which added to the confusion and generated many questions. The Wayne Conservation District is offering this morning workshop to help our local contractors, builders, municipal officials and planners through some of the maze and questions. Please join us for this morning session and have a cup of coffee and donut on us.

The first 50 people to register will receive a free portable E&S Plan holder!
