Rills, gullies, exposed roots, displaced soil, sediment deposits, undercut areas, damaged vegetation, and changes in surface drainage can document the location and progression of erosion. Historical photographs, surveys, aerial imagery, and earlier site inspections can help establish when visible changes first appeared and whether the condition progressed through one or more storm events or over a longer period. The timing should be evaluated together with rainfall, construction, grading, drainage, and maintenance records where available.
Concentrating runoff can increase flow depth, velocity, or hydraulic stress and increase the potential for soil detachment and transport. Grading, pavement, drainage outlets, channels, and other site features may concentrate water that would otherwise move more diffusely across the ground surface. Site elevations, contributing drainage areas, outlet locations, soil and surface conditions, photographs, and erosion patterns can help assess the source and direction of the concentrated flow.
An expert can compare approved or historical grading information with current elevations, slopes, drainage paths, vegetation, and field conditions. Changes that steepen slopes, redirect or concentrate runoff, expose soil, or remove protective ground cover can alter erosion potential. Surveys, photographs, construction records, and erosion patterns from different dates can help assess whether the timing and location of erosion are consistent with the grading changes.
