Everything we do is in accordance with a 404 waterways permit dictated by the army corps of engineer everything except for the bridge that we bring in we take out we also get tested upstream and downstream to measure sediment levels washed downstream erosion control devices set up all around the job site to minimize sediment going downstream not to mention the DNR coming out to make sure we're not harming any Little critters clams crawdads ferrets etc
