Water bar definition

Water bar means a diversion ditch and/or hump in a trail or road for the purpose of carrying surface water runoff into the vegetation duff, ditch, or other dispersion area so that it does not gain the volume and velocity which causes soil movement and erosion.
Water bar. A dip in the Roadbed which intercepts surface runoff and diverts the water off the Roadway. A Water bar is not designed to be traversable by logging trucks.
