Talking About Silt Fences and Erosion Control on Construction Jobsites

Today's ProfitDig video is all about silt fences and erosion control! Silt is runoff from a job site. Natural erosion control is best for slowing silt down, but silt fences are erosion matting attached to posts that is used to control runoff. The idea is for silt to pile up next to the fence. Silt fences often have to be redone to maintain control, and there are erosion control companies that specialize in that process. If you are doing dirt work, you must understand the proper use of silt fences. The ramifications of not properly doing erosion control can be disastrous.
