There are also small areas of micro-erosion present throughout. The intention is to use low ground pressure excavators to reprofile hags and stabilise/revegetate the exposed peat which will help prevent water dripping over the edge and causing further erosion. They will then revegetate the reprofiled face using borrowed turves from the surrounding area and create low bunds and/or baffles at the base of the hags and gullies to deflect the water away from the newly revegetated faces. The techniques use materials located within the project area and will result in small, shallow pools of water in some locations with waterflow being slowed and peat sediment retained on the hill."
