Protect Local Water Quality And Comply With Regulations

You can prevent the release of silt and sediment from a construction site with a Layfield silt fence. This temporary sediment control device protects surrounding neighborhoods, streams, and catch basins from silt contamination by collecting and filtering sediment from sheet flow runoff. This way, you can avoid expensive cleanup costs and potential harm to the environment.

Silt fences are typically deployed on sites where the soil has been stripped of natural vegetation. Bare soil is easily eroded and can lead to the loss of large quantities of silt during a rainstorm or runoff event. A properly installed and maintained silt fence contains silts before they can cause contamination and saves you from expensive cleanup costs.
