ASAE/ASABE EP464.1 – Grassed Waterways for Runoff Control
This Engineering Practice covers all engineering phases of planning, design, construction, and maintenance ofnatural or constructed channels that are to be vegetated and used for water disposal. Grassed waterways withstone centers are included in the Engineering Practice. Grassed waterways provide some filtering of sedimentor other water borne contaminants but should not be planned to function as filter strips. Additional specialprovisions for capacity, selection of vegetative species, and maintenance may be necessary to address filteringconcerns.
