Welcome to the Bloggosphere!

Ask and ye shall receive! After many thoughts & discussions, the Great Rivers Chapter of IECA is happy to roll out our Blog page! While the page will cater to our Chapter membership, it will also provide useful, timely information for everyone involved in teh erosion & sediment control and stormwater industry. Our plan is to add content on a weekly basis, with hopefully more rather than less content given certain weeks. Industry news, local stormwater events, certification updates, EPA and State news, local success stories....anything that can be useful to you in this industry is what we want to bring you.

With our plans for quarterly newsletters providing our Chapter membership with great articles and information, we hope that this blog site can be a quality location for timely information that you can link to every day or week to catch up on news & happenings you might have missed.

As with our Newsletters, we encourage suggestions and comments! If you want to provide event information or blog content, please send it to greatriversieca@gmail.com.

So enjoy the blog, share it with your friends and colleagues, even link us to your existing web page! Thanks for your sustained and contunied support of the International Erosion Control Association, and the Great Rivers Chapter!

  3. Congratulations on the new blog.
    This is a great way to disseminate information to both your members and the world in general. We (the Northern Plains Chapter, now in dormancy) have had our blog up since October 2006, and it has been one of the few successes our chapter has had. www.erosionmatters.blogspot.com
    The blog really helped to hold our members together, but we had too few active members, plus a few members who promised lots but never delivered.
    Keep this up, and try to get as many participants as possible active in the blog. Make it easy by making all of your members active contributors.
