The International Erosion Control Association (IECA) has been the largest member-based association for erosion control since 1972. Today, IECA is the leading association for erosion and sediment control, stormwater management, and stream restoration, and provides education, resources, and networking to the industry, government, and academia. The Canadian Chapter is one of IECA’s many regional chapters, and serves as Canada’s one essential source for environmental education and resources.
