Sediment Practical farm efficiency Mass Import - autoclassified (may be erroneous) IRRIGATION canals and drainage ditches often require periodic cleaning to remove wind-blown or water-deposited sediments. Ponds used to trap sediment from irrigation runoff and food processing wastewater also require periodic cleaning if they are to remain effective. The freshly removed sediment is usually piled next to the canals or ponds for drying and temporary storage. Dredge materials often are stored near the source until the piles become so large they constitute a nuisance. Removal then is necessary. Sediment piles frequently remain in place for 10 years or more. 1987 Article NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en https://eprints.nwisrl.ars.usda.gov/id/eprint/474/1/597.pdf Robbins, C.W.
