SILT FENCING



Silt Fencing

A silt fence, or filter fence, is a temporary sediment control device used on construction sites to protect water quality in nearby streams, rivers, lakes and bays from sediment (loose soil) in storm water runoff. A typical fence consists of a piece of synthetic filter fabric (also called a geotextile) stretched between a series of wooden or metal fence stakes along a horizontal contour level. The stakes are installed on the downhill side of the fence, and the bottom edge of the fabric is trenched into the soil and backfilled on the uphill side. The storm water slowly passes through the fence while depositing its sediments on the uphill side of the fence. The fence is not designed to concentrate or channel storm water. The fence is installed on a site before soil disturbance (earth moving) begins, down-slope from the disturbance area.

      

PVC Pond Liners

A Variable PVC Pond Liner can also be available, like PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) and HDPE (High Density Poly Ethylene).These liners aren’t as flexible as rubber. A PVC Pond Liner is often used on big holding ponds when economy is a greater concern than versatility.

Huge ponds require a Pond Liner that is secure for fish and aquatic plant existence, low-cost, simple to install and long lasting. Polyethylene fits the bill. Medium-density Polyethylene consists of as much as 5 percent carbon black, which creates it highly UV stable and suited to outdoor living. Twenty and 30 mm polyethylene can be custom-made according for your specifications.
