Local Conditions That Affect Your Crushed Gravel Project in Elba

Elba averages about 58 inches of rain a year, so drainage planning is critical for any gravel installation. About 70 days each year bring measurable rain, which affects when you can schedule delivery onto firm ground. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.

The ground around Elba is in hydrologic group C, meaning it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. This behavior calls for a deeper drainage layer beneath the crushed gravel to prevent washout. Only about 33 days a year drop below freezing. Ground freezing is not a significant factor here, which reduces how deep the base layer needs to be.
