Description

Trial testing of corrugated plastic drainage tubing and wire mesh culverts has been conducted since 1978 in Region 9 of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Plastic tubing was successfully used in streams with drainages less than 1 square mile. However, in drainages larger than 1 square mile or where longer than 10-inch diameter tubing was required, 19-inch diameter wire mesh culverts were tried. By 1983 more than 11 wire mesh culverts had been installed success fully in the Region.
