Kennedy Brook and Mantle Lake by reducing sediment loads from agricultural land. The project focused on the steepest agricultural fields in the watershed.

NRCS engineers surveyed the site, completed an assessment and designed two sediment basins with attendant rock-lined waterways, spillways and rock aprons. The basins were designed to collect sediments from the water and spread the output in a vegetated buffer. The design will provide 25 year, 24 hour protection and allow routine cleanout. Cavendish Farms, Maine provided a contractor to install the BMP structures, matched construction costs and agreed to a long-term maintenance plan.
