Below you
can explore products that will assist you in meeting or exceeding stormwater
run off regulations.
Helps comply with NPDES, 40 CFR 122.26 (1999)
when used as
Best Management Practice in Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Plans.
Some times referred to as fiber rolls or fiber logs,
StormWattles can be used instead of silt fence to reduce erosion
control at construction sites. The units stop sediment and other
debris from entering retention ponds, lakes and other water
bodies.
Ultra-StormWattle are made with wheat straw,
and bound into a tight tubular roll. When StormWattles 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 Ultra-StormWattle fiber roll can also reduce
erosion.
Environmentally-friendly - units can be left
in place to eventually "mulch in" with surrounding environment.
Installation is quick and easy - simply dig shallow
trench and stake in place.
Requires no maintenance or upkeep.
Can be used as check dams to reduce water velocity.
Less intrusive and conspicuous than silt fence - perfect
for use in ongoing residential and commercial construction projects.
Minimize erosion on slopes and inclines - perfect for
fire burn rehabilitation, timber harvest erosion control and revegetation
projects.
Ultra-StormWattles can be used:
Along the toe, top, face, and at grade breaks of
exposed and erodible slopes to shorten slope length and spread
runoff as sheet flow
At the end of a downward slope where it
transitions to a steeper slope
