Erosion and sedimentation control on roads and construction sites in the Federated States of Micronesia

Abstract

Enclosed is the report that Walt Megahan and I prepared following our trip to States of Micronesia. As we discussed earlier, we felt that it was redundant to produce a set of guidelines for road construction since the FAO Conservation Guide 13/5 that was issued in 1989 (ISBN 92-5-102789-X) covers the subject extensively. We felt that we could best tailor this report to specific recommendations related to what we observed on our trip and to reference those sections in the FAO Guide that are applicable, and to identify those instances where the FAO Guide is not applicable to conditions in FSM
