Silt Fence is a barrier consisting of geotextile fabric supported by metal posts to prevent soil and sediment loss from a site. This includes all labor and materials associated with installation and maintenance of the silt fence as shown in the construction drawings or similar document. B. The purpose of a silt fence is to intercept and detain water-borne sediment from unprotected areas to a limited extent. Silt fence is used during the period of construction near the perimeter of a disturbed area to intercept sediment while allowing water to percolate through. This fence shall remain in place until the disturbed area is permanently stabilized. Silt fence should not be used where there is a concentration of water in a channel or drainage way or where soil conditions prevent a minimum toe-in depth of six (6) inches or installation of support post to depth of 12 inches. If concentrated, flow occurs after installation, corrective action must be taken such as placing rock berm in the areas of concentrated flow.
