Silt Fences are temporary sediment control devices that are designed to prevent the release of silt from a construction site. Silt fence is supplied as 100’ rolls of permeable fabric with wooden stakes securely fastened in pockets of the fabric. These are installed along landscape contours to collect or filter sediment from sheet flow runoff. Silt Fences prevent silt contamination of sensitive areas such as neighboring properties, streams, and catch basins. A properly installed and maintained silt fence will collect silts before they can cause contamination requiring expensive clean up. Silt fences are most often used on sites where the soil has been stripped of natural vegetation. The bare soil is easily eroded and can lead to the loss of large quantities of silt during a rainstorm or other run-off event. Silt Fences are short term solutions to your BMP needs.
