Storm Water/Erosion Control
stormwater-erosion-control
StrawWattle Rolls are made with straw. When they are placed on the face of slopes, they intercept stormwater runoff, reduce its flow velocity, release the runoff as sheet flow, and provide removal of sediment from the runoff. By interrupting the length of a slope, the roll can also reduce erosion.
Silt Fencing
Silt fencing is a temporary sediment barrier made of porous fabric. It’s held up by wooden or metal posts driven into the ground, it’s inexpensive and relatively easy to remove. The fabric ponds sediment-laden stormwater runoff, causing sediment to be retained by the settling processes. A single 100 foot (ft) run of silt fence may hold 50 tons of sediment in place.- Contractor-grade material in heights of 24" and 36".
- Easy and economical way to meet erosion and sediment control at construction sites.
- DOT-grade material available.
- Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999).
Straw Wattles
Minimize Erosion and Sediment RunoffStrawWattle Rolls are made with straw. When they are placed on the face of slopes, they intercept stormwater runoff, reduce its flow velocity, release the runoff as sheet flow, and provide removal of sediment from the runoff. By interrupting the length of a slope, the roll can also reduce erosion.
- Use instead of silt fence to reduce erosion at construction sites - stops sediment and other debris from entering retentions ponds, lakes and other water bodies.
- Environmentally-friendly - units can be left in place to eventually ""mulch in"" with surrounding environment.
- Less intrusive and conspicuous than silt fence - perfect for use in ongoing residential and commercial construction projects.
- Installation is quick and easy - simply dig shallow trench and stake in place.
- Can be used as check dams to reduce water velocity.
- Requires no maintenance or upkeep.
- Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999).
Ultra Passive Skimmer®
(2) Remove Oil Permanently from Catch Basins and Storm Drains- Unique polymer absorbent actually bonds the oil to the polymer matrix and prevents leaching.
- Will not create ponding or clog due to sediment.
- One 22" x 14" x 2" unit can hold up to 2 gallons of oil.
- Floats on water surface - continuously absorbs oil.
- Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999) and TMDL requirements.
Downspout and Pipe Filter
Contaminated water poses an expensive disposal problem, for which this convenient product is the solution. The 5-gallon pail can easily be carried where required and is loaded with an oil only absorbent media to clean water. After allowing time for the absorbents to do their work, simply open the drain and release the decontaminated water. Filter media is replaceable. downspoutguard.gif
Dewatering Bags
(8) Contain Sediment And Oil Pumped Out During Dewatering Operations- Retains both oil and sediment, offering a combination of benefits not available in alternative dewatering bags.
- Standard and custom sizes available.
- Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999).
