INSTALLATION
PREFABRICATED SILT FENCE
1. LAY OUT THE LOCATION OF THE FENCE SO THAT IT IS PARALLEL TO THE CONTOUR OF THE SLOPE AND AT LEAST 10 FEET BEYOND THE TOE OF THE SLOPE TO PROVIDE A SEDIMENT
STORAGE AREA. TURN THE ENDS OF THE FENCE UP SLOPE SUCH THAT THE POINT OF CONTACT BETWEEN THE GROUND AND THE BOTTOM OF THE FENCE END TERMINATES AT A HIGHER
ELEVATION THAN THE TOP OF THE FENCE AT ITS LOWEST POINT.
2. EXCAVATE AN EIGHT-INCH DEEP BY FOUR-INCH WIDE TRENCH ALONG THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE FENCE LINE. INSTALLATION BY PLOWING IS ALSO ACCEPTABLE.
3. INSTALL THE SILT FENCE WITH THE FILTER FABRIC LOCATED ON THE UP-SLOPE SIDE OF THE EXCAVATED TRENCH AND THE SUPPORT POSTS ON THE DOWN-SLOPE SIDE OF THE TRENCH.
4. DRIVE THE SUPPORT POSTS AT LEAST 18 INCHES INTO THE GROUND, TIGHTLY STRETCHING THE FABRIC BETWEEN THE POSTS AS EACH IS DRIVEN INTO THE SOIL. MINIMUM OF 12 INCHES
OF THE FILTER FABRIC SHOULD EXTEND INTO THE TRENCH.
5. LAY THE LOWER FOUR INCHES OF FILTER FABRIC ON THE BOTTOM OF THE TRENCH AND EXTEND IT TOWARD THE UP-SLOPE SIDE OF THE TRENCH.
6. BACKFILL THE TRENCH WITH SOIL MATERIAL AND COMPACT IT IN PLACE.
NOTE: IF THE SILT FENCE IS BEING CONSTRUCTED ON-SITE, ATTACH THE FILTER FABRIC TO THE SUPPORT POSTS AND ATTACH WOODEN LATHE TO SECURE THE FABRIC TO THE POSTS.
ALLOW FOR AT LEAST 12 INCHES OF FABRIC BELOW GROUND LEVEL. COMPLETE THE SILT FENCE INSTALLATION, FOLLOWING STEPS 1 THROUGH 6 ABOVE.
MAINTENANCE
_ INSPECT WITHIN 24 HOURS OF A RAIN EVENT AND AT LEAST ONCE EVERY SEVEN CALENDAR DAYS.
_ IF FENCE FABRIC TEARS, STARTS TO DECOMPOSE, OR IN ANY WAY BECOMES INEFFECTIVE, REPLACE THE AFFECTED PORTION IMMEDIATELY. NOTE: ALL REPAIRS SHOULD MEET
SPECIFICATIONS AS OUTLINED WITHIN THIS MEASURE.
_ REMOVE DEPOSITED SEDIMENT WHEN IT IS CAUSING THE FILTER FABRIC TO BULGE OR WHEN IT REACHES ONE-HALF THE HEIGHT OF THE FENCE AT ITS LOWEST POINT. WHEN
CONTRIBUTING DRAINAGE AREA HAS BEEN STABILIZED, REMOVE THE FENCE AND SEDIMENT DEPOSITS, GRADE THE SITE TO BLEND WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA, AND STABILIZE.

1. PERENNIAL SPECIES MAY BE USED AS A TEMPORARY COVER, ESPECIALLY IF THE AREA TO BE
SEEDED WILL REMAIN IDLE FOR MORE THAN ONE YEAR.
2. SEEDING DONE OUTSIDE THE OPTIMUM SEEDING DATES INCREASES THE CHANCES OF SEEDING FAILURE. DATES
MAY BE EXTENDED OR SHORTENED BASED ON THE LOCATION OF THE PROJECT
SITE WITHIN THE STATE.
NOTES
1. MULCH ALONE IS AN ACCEPTABLE TEMPORARY COVER AND MAY BE USED IN LIEU OF TEMPORARY SEEDING, PROVIDED THAT IT IS
APPROPRIATELY ANCHORED.
2. A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR FERTILIZER, SEED, AND MULCH TO WASH EXISTS ON STEEP BANKS, CUTS, AND IN CHANNELS AND AREAS
OF CONCENTRATED FLOW.
SEEDBED PREPARATION
1. TEST SOIL TO DETERMINE PH AND NUTRIENT LEVELS.
2. APPLY SOIL AMENDMENTS AS RECOMMENDED BY THE SOIL TEST. IF TESTING IS NOT DONE, APPLY 400 TO 600 POUNDS PER ACRE
OF 12-12-12 ANALYSIS FERTILIZER, OR EQUIVALENT.
3. WORK THE SOIL AMENDMENTS INTO THE UPPER TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF THE SOIL WITH
A DISK OR RAKE OPERATED ACROSS THE SLOPE.
SEEDING
1. SELECT A SEED SPECIES OR AN APPROPRIATE SEED MIXTURE AND APPLICATION RATE FROM TABLE 1.
2. APPLY SEED UNIFORMLY WITH A DRILL OR CULTIPACKER SEEDER OR BY BROADCASTING. PLANT OR COVER SEED TO THE DEPTH
SHOWN IN TABLE 1.
NOTES
1. IF DRILLING OR BROADCASTING THE SEED, ENSURE GOOD SEED-TO-SOIL CONTACT BY FIRMING THE SEEDBED WITH A ROLLER OR
CULTIPACKER AFTER COMPLETING SEEDING OPERATIONS.
2. DAILY SEEDING WHEN THE SOIL IS MOIST IS USUALLY MOST EFFECTIVE.
3. IF SEEDING IS DONE WITH A HYDROSEEDER, FERTILIZER AND MULCH CAN BE APPLIED WITH THE SEED IN A SLURRY MIXTURE.
3. APPLY MULCH AND ANCHOR IT IN PLACE.
MAINTENANCE
1.INSPECT WITHIN 24 HOURS OF EACH RAIN EVENT AND AT LEAST ONCE EVERY SEVEN CALENDAR DAYS.
2. CHECK FOR EROSION OR MOVEMENT OF MULCH AND REPAIR IMMEDIATELY.
3. MONITOR FOR EROSION DAMAGE AND ADEQUATE COVER (80 PERCENT DENSITY); RESEED, FERTILIZE, AND APPLY 4. MULCH
WHERE NECESSARY.
4. IF NITROGEN DEFICIENCY IS APPARENT, TOP-DRESS FALL SEEDED WHEAT OR RYE SEEDING WITH 50 POUNDS PER ACRE OF
NITROGEN IN FEBRUARY OR MARCH.

SEEDBED PREPARATION
1.TEST SOIL TO DETERMINE PH AND NUTRIENT LEVELS.
2.APPLY SOIL AMENDMENTS AS RECOMMENDED BY THE SOIL TEST AND WORK INTO THE
UPPER TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF SOIL. IF TESTING IS NOT DONE, APPLY 400 TO 600
POUNDS PER ACRE OF 12-12-12 ANALYSIS FERTILIZER, OR EQUIVALENT.
3.TILL THE SOIL TO OBTAIN A UNIFORM SEEDBED. USE A DISK OR RAKE, OPERATED
ACROSS THE SLOPE, TO WORK THE SOIL AMENDMENTS INTO THE UPPER TWO TO FOUR
INCHES OF THE SOIL.
SEEDING
OPTIMUM SEEDING DATES ARE MARCH 1 TO MAY 10 AND AUGUST 10 TO SEPTEMBER 30.
PERMANENT SEEDING DONE BETWEEN MAY 10 AND AUGUST 10 MAY NEED TO BE IRRIGATED.
SEEDING OUTSIDE OR BEYOND OPTIMUM SEEDING DATES IS STILL POSSIBLE WITH THE
UNDERSTANDING THAT RESEEDING OR OVERSEEDING MAY BE REQUIRED IF ADEQUATE
SURFACE COVER IS NOT ACHIEVED. RESEEDING OR OVERSEEDING CAN BE EASILY
ACCOMPLISHED IF THE SOIL SURFACE REMAINS WELL PROTECTED WITH MULCH.
1.SELECT A SEEDING MIXTURE AND RATE FROM TABLE 1. SELECT SEED MIXTURE BASED
ON SITE CONDITIONS, SOIL PH, INTENDED LAND USE, AND EXPECTED LEVEL OF
MAINTENANCE.
2.APPLY SEED UNIFORMLY WITH A DRILL OR CULTIPACKER SEEDER OR BY
BROADCASTING. PLANT OR COVER THE SEED TO A DEPTH OF ONE-FOURTH TO
ONE-HALF INCH. IF DRILLING OR BROADCASTING THE SEED, ENSURE GOOD
SEED-TO-SOIL CONTACT BY FIRMING THE SEEDBED WITH A ROLLER OR CULTIPACKER
AFTER COMPLETING SEEDING OPERATIONS. (IF SEEDING IS DONE WITH A
HYDROSEEDER, FERTILIZER AND MULCH CAN BE APPLIED WITH THE SEED IN A SLURRY
MIXTURE.)
3.MULCH ALL SEEDED AREAS AND USE APPROPRIATE METHODS TO ANCHOR THE MULCH
IN PLACE. CONSIDER USING EROSION CONTROL BLANKETS ON SLOPING AREAS AND
CONVEYANCE CHANNELS
MAINTENANCE
1.INSPECT WITHIN 24 HOURS OF EACH RAIN EVENT AND AT LEAST ONCE EVERY SEVEN
CALENDAR DAYS UNTIL THE VEGETATION IS SUCCESSFULLY ESTABLISHED.
2.CHARACTERISTICS OF A SUCCESSFUL STAND INCLUDE VIGOROUS DARK GREEN OR
BLUISHGREEN SEEDLINGS WITH A UNIFORM VEGETATIVE COVER DENSITY OF 90
PERCENT OR MORE.
3.CHECK FOR EROSION OR MOVEMENT OF MULCH.
4.REPAIR DAMAGED, BARE, GULLIED, OR SPARSELY VEGETATED AREAS AND THEN
FERTILIZE, RESEED, AND APPLY AND ANCHOR MULCH.
5.IF PLANT COVER IS SPARSE OR PATCHY, EVALUATE THE PLANT MATERIALS CHOSEN,
SOIL FERTILITY, MOISTURE CONDITION, AND MULCH APPLICATION; REPAIR AFFECTED
AREAS EITHER BY OVERSEEDING OR PREPARING A NEW SEEDBED AND RESEEDING.
APPLY AND ANCHOR MULCH ON THE NEWLY SEEDED AREAS.
6.IF VEGETATION FAILS TO GROW, CONSIDER SOIL TESTING TO DETERMINE SOIL PH OR
NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY PROBLEMS. (CONTACT YOUR SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION
DISTRICT OR COOPERATIVE EXTENSION OFFICE FOR ASSISTANCE.)
7.IF ADDITIONAL FERTILIZATION IS NEEDED TO GET A SATISFACTORY STAND, DO SO
ACCORDING TO SOIL TEST RECOMMENDATIONS.
8.ADD FERTILIZER THE FOLLOWING GROWING SEASON. FERTILIZE ACCORDING TO SOIL
TEST RECOMMENDATIONS.
9.FERTILIZE TURF AREAS ANNUALLY. APPLY FERTILIZER IN A SPLIT APPLICATION. FOR
COOL-SEASON GRASSES, APPLY ONE-HALF OF THE FERTILIZER IN LATE SPRING AND
ONE HALF IN EARLY FALL. FOR WARM-SEASON GRASSES, APPLY ONE-THIRD IN EARLY
SPRING, ONE-THIRD IN LATE SPRING, AND THE REMAINING ONE-THIRD IN MIDDLE
SUMMER.
TABLE 1. PERMANENT SEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS
THIS TABLE PROVIDES SEVERAL SEED MIXTURE OPTIONS. ADDITIONAL SEED MIXTURES ARE
AVAILABLE COMMERCIALLY. WHEN SELECTING A MIXTURE, CONSIDER INTENDED LAND USE
AND SITE CONDITIONS, INCLUDING SOIL PROPERTIES (E.G., SOIL PH AND DRAINAGE), SLOPE
ASPECT, AND THE TOLERANCE OF EACH SPECIES TO SHADE AND DROUGHT.
