BLOCK CONSTRUCTION. There are a number of different techniques and methods that can be used to create dams within moorland grips. These may be determined by the size of the grip, the weight of water that will sit behind the grip block and the materials that are available to build the dam. Wherever possible you should use natural materials which will have no visual impact or will easily weather and become naturalised e.g. soil bunds or xxxxxxx xxxxx. The grip block should be constructed to withstand conditions of peak flow and not merely the low flow rates between periods of rainfall. For a grip block to be effective it must shed the excess water once the grip has become full, or during periods of heavy flow. This can be achieved by building the dam wall above the surface of the adjacent land to ensure excess water escapes without returning to the original drainage channel. Generally grip blocks can be constructed to form either trickle dams or impoundment dams. Trickle dams are constructed from a permeable material, which will reduce the velocity of flow, whilst allowing some of the water to travel through the wall. Trickle dams trap sediment and are often stabilised by colonising vegetation, and over time they may impound water. They can be effective in reducing erosion, but they are much less capable of raising the water table. Impoundment dams raise the water table by creating an impermeable barrier across the drainage channel. The dam may be made from a range of materials including decay-resistant wooden boarding, and well humified peat. If impoundment dams are used on inclined sections of grips they need to be constructed from robust material. Ensure that there is sufficient light for emergent vegetation to establish within the area behind each grip block. It may be necessary to re-profile sections of the grip to achieve this.

BLOCK CONSTRUCTION. The following is information mutually agreed upon between the Company and the Association that will assist both the pilot blockers in the SSC, and the Company crew planners when building and awarding monthly blocks. It is recognized by both parties that the process of preparing, issuing, bidding, and awarding pilot monthly blocks is a difficult and complex process. The main factor in assuring that this process is completed on time and within the bounds of Agreement #2 is the preparation and planning that goes into it. As there is no time period allotted for rebid much care must be taken to ensure that the blocks when issued have been carefully reviewed by both the Company and the SSC. To this end no changes will be made to the blocks when submitted by the SSC to the Company unless the Association Scheduling Chairman or his designated representative have agreed that these changes are made in reference to the pilot's bids and conform to the rules of Section 8. In commencing to build the monthly blocks the Designated Blockers will proceed as follows:
