  • The Role of Geosynthetics in Erosion and Sediment Control: an Overview
    Geotextiles and Geomembranes I I (1992) 535-550 The Role of Geosynthetics in Erosion and Sediment Control: An Overview M. S. Theisen Erosion Control Materials, Synthetic Industries, Construction Products Division, 4019 Industry Drive, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37416, USA ABSTRACT The use ofgeosynthetic erosion and sediment materials continues to expand at a rapid pace. From their early beginnings in the late 1950s, geosynthetic materials today are the backbone of the erosion and sediment control industry. Geosynthetic components are an integral part of erosion and sediment materials ranging from temporary products such as hydraulic mulch geofibers, plastic erosion control meshes and nettings, erosion control blankets and silt fences to high performance turf reinforcement mats, geocellular confinement systems, erosion control geotextiles andfabric formed revetments. This paper provides a brief overview of these materials and concepts. INTRODUCTION Hopefully we are entering a new environmental era where concern for the protection of our planet's natural resources will reach global proportions. Continued technological advances have led to improved monitoring of Earth's vital signs. As such, prior theoretical modeling of environmental concerns such as the greenhouse effect, ozone depletion, rising sea levels, deforestation, drought, accelerated erosion, sediment loading of waterways, species extinction and the eventual downfall of mankind appear chillingly realistic. 535 536 M. S. Theisen Slogans such as 'Think globally, act locally', 'Love your mother' and 'Someone always lives downstream' are spearheading the efforts of numerous preservation groups. With the continued demise of oppressive governments, optimism for world peace and an unprecedented feeling of global unity, a spirit of environmental cooperation is beginning to prevail.

  • Silt Fence Installation Guidelines
    Silt Fence Installation Guidelines Sediment Control QUALITY - SUPPORT - EXPERTISE Silt Fence Installation Guidelines 2 00m m de ep 200mm STEP 1 STEP 2 Installation STEP 1 Excavate a trench a minimum of 200mm wide and 200mm deep on STEP 3 the uphill side of the proposed line of silt fence. STEP 2 Drive adequate length support posts to a depth (minimum 400mm) appropriate for the site conditions downhill of the trench. A. Post spacing is typically at 2m centres with wire attached along the top between posts to assist with support of the silt fence. B. Post spacing can be increased up to 4m centres if supported by 2.5mm diameter high tensile wire at mid height and along the top 600mm with hog rings, clips or pins every 150mm connecting the silt fence along the top wire. STEP 3 Roll out silt fence and position up against the support posts and fold over top wire. Hog rings, clips or pins are used to attach the silt fence to the top wire (at the required spacing). STEP 4 STEP 4 Bury bottom section along the base and up the side of the trench leaving a minimum exposed height of 600mm and backfill with soil. Compact to ensure good anchorage. Place safety caps on posts. NOTE Installation to follow your local Regional Council guidelines for erosion control and sediment control. Maintenance Regular inspection of silt fence is required especially after each rainfall event. Make any necessary repairs and remove excessive silt deposits to reduce pressure on the silt fence.

  • Silt Fences Allow Sediment to Settle from Runoff Before Water Leaves the Construction Site
    Silt Fence SC-1 BMP Objectives ○ Soil Stabilization ● Sediment Control ○ Tracking Control ○ Wind Erosion Control ○ Non-Storm Water Management ○ Materials and Waste Management Definition and Purpose A silt fence is a temporary linear sediment barrier of permeable fabric designed to intercept and slow the flow of sediment-laden sheet flow runoff. Silt fences allow sediment to settle from runoff before water leaves the construction site. Appropriate Applications Silt fences are placed: n Below the toe of exposed and erodible slopes. n Down-slope of exposed soil areas. n Around temporary stockpiles. n Along streams and channels. Limitations n Not effective unless trenched and keyed in. n Not intended for use as mid-slope protection on slopes greater than 4:1. n Must be maintained to remain effective. n Not intended for use in streams, channels, or anywhere flow is concentrated. n Difficult to install and maintain in windy areas. n Must be removed and disposed of. 70 Design Guidelines and Considerations n Do not use below slopes subject to creep, slumping, or landslides. n Do not use in streams, channels, or anywhere flow is concentrated. n Do not use silt fences to divert flow. n The maximum length of slope upgradient of the silt fence should be 60 m (200 ft) or less to minimize flow volumes and velocities and increase the effectiveness of the silt fence. n Slope of areas draining to fence should be less than 1:1 but can be used below steeper slopes at the Engineers discretion. n Limit to locations suitable for temporary ponding or deposition of sediment.

  • The Evolution of Geosynthetics in Erosion and Sediment Control
    Presented at GRI-25, Geosynthetics Research Institute, Long Beach, CA, 2013 THE EVOLUTION OF GEOSYNTHETICS IN EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL C. Joel Sprague TRI/Environmental, Inc., Greenville, SC ABSTRACT Much of the development of geosynthetics technology in environmental applications has been in response to government regulations. This is certainly true for geosynthetics used in erosion and sediment control. Geosynthetics continue to replace traditional materials such as soil and stone in performing important engineering functions in erosion and sediment control applications while simultaneously introducing greater versatility and cost-effectiveness. Geosynthetics are widely used as a “carrier” for degradable materials to the enhancement of vegetative establishment; as nondegradable materials to extend the erosion control limits of vegetation or soil; as primary slope or channel linings; as components in silt fences and turbidity curtains; and as a component in an ever growing array of sediment retention devices. Along with the introduction of geosynthetics into this wide range of applications has come the need for industry-wide initiatives to promote their correct use and new test methods to characterize them. All of which, are a “work in progress”. THE NEED FOR EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROLS Much of the development of geosynthetics technology related to erosion and sediment control applications has been in response to government regulations. A progression of regulatory actions has brought a national focus on erosion and sediment control, including: Amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (1985) - eliminating discharge of any pollutant to navigable waters. The Clean Water Act (1987) - requiring National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permits for large construction sites.

  • Erosion and Sediment Control Plan Checklist
    Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Plan Checklist Page 1 of 4 What is an Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Plan? Erosion and sediment control is much more than silt fence and hay bales. Prior to developing an Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Plan (EPSCP), it is important to have minimized the areas of disturbed soils and the duration of exposure. It is also imperative to control water at up- slope site perimeters, control water on-site, control sediment on-site, and control sediment at the downslope site perimeters. An EPSCP is the final element in the erosion and sediment control planning process and a necessary component of an Act 250 permit application. The EPSCP ensures that sediment transport is addressed in one of the most crucial stages of the project: the planning stage. A good erosion prevention and sediment control plan first minimizes the extent of disturbance by focusing on erosion control (minimizing disturbed areas, seeding, mulching, matting) by controlling the amount of soil that can run off and by stabilizing exposed soil. Sediment control measures (i.e. stabilized construction entrances) then focus on any sediment that has escaped your erosion control measures. Erosion prevention measures are far more effective than sediment control measures (such as silt fence) and should be the primary focus of any EPSCP. An EPSCP has five primary components: 1. Location map (USGS and other) 2. Existing conditions site plan 3. Grading plan and construction timetable 4. Erosion prevention and sediment control site plan and timetable 5. Narrative briefly describing the four plans The location map shows the proximity of the site to any surface water bodies, roads, etc.

Robichaud Report RMRS-GTR-94 Robert E. Brown August 2002 Robichaud, Peter R.; Brown, Robert E. 2002. Silt fences: an economical technique for measuring hillslope soil erosion. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-94. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 24 p. Abstract—Measuring hillslope erosion has historically been a costly, time-consuming practice. An easy to install low-cost technique using silt fences (geotextile fabric) and tipping bucket rain gauges to measure onsite hillslope erosion was developed and tested. Equipment requirements, installation procedures, statis- tical design, and analysis methods for measuring hillslope erosion are discussed. The use of silt fences is versatile; various plot sizes can be used to measure hillslope erosion in different settings and to determine effectiveness of various treatments or practices. Silt fences are installed by making a sediment trap facing upslope such that runoff cannot go around the ends of the silt fence. The silt fence is folded to form a pocket for the sediment to settle on and reduce the possibility of sediment undermining the silt fence. Cleaning out and weighing the accumulated sediment in the field can be accomplished with a portable hanging or plat- form scale at various time intervals depending on the necessary degree of detail in the measurement of erosion (that is, after every storm, quarterly, or seasonally). Silt fences combined with a tipping bucket rain gauge provide an easy, low-cost method to quantify precipitation/hillslope erosion relationships.
