gravel to bury lower portion of support wire and /or fence fabric.
Support Posts: 2x2 in. hardwood posts (if used) or steel posts set at least 1 ft. deep.
Steel posts should have projections for fastening fabric.
Spacing of Posts: 8 ft. maximum if fence supported by wire, 6 ft. for extra- strength fabric
without wire backing.
High enough so depth of impounded water does not exceed 1 Y ft. at any
point along the fence line.

INSTALLATION
Site Preparation
1.) Plan for the fence to be at least 10 ft. from the toe of the slope to provide a sediment storage
area.
2.) Provide access to the area if sediment cleanout will be needed.
Fence Construction
1.) Along the entire intended fence line, dig an 8 in. flat bottomed or V- shaped trench.
2.) On the downslope side of the trench, drive the wood or steel support posts at least 1 ft. into the
ground (the deeper the better), spacing them no more than 8 ft. apart if the fence is supported by
wire or 6 ft. if extra- strength fabric is used without support wire. Adjust spacing, if necessary, to
ensure that posts are set at the low points along the fence line. (Note: If the fence has
pre- attached posts or stakes, drive them deep enough so that the fabric is satisfactorily in the trench
as described in Step 6.)
3.) Fasten support wire fence (if the manufacturer recommends its use) to the upslope side of the
posts, extending it 8 in. into the trench.
4.) Run a continuous length of geotextile fabric in front (upslope) of the support wire and posts,
avoiding joints, particularly at low points in the fence line.
5.) If a joint is necessary, nail the overlap to the nearest post with lath.
6.) Place the bottom 1 ft. of fabric in the 8 in. deep trench, extending the remaining 4 in. toward the
upslope side.
7.) Backfill the trench with compacted earth or gravel.
MAINTENANCE
1.) Inspect the silt fence periodically and after each storm event.
2.) If fence fabric tears, starts to decompose, or in any way becomes ineffective, replace the affected
portion immediately.
3.) Remove deposited sediment when it reaches half the height of the fence at its lowest point or is
causing the fabric to bulge.
4.) Take care to avoid undermining the fence during clean out.
5.) After the contributing drainage area has been stabilized, remove the fence and sediment deposits,
bring the disturbed area to grade, and stabilize.

(refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion Control in Developing Areas, Practice 3.24).
4.) Install pipe under the pad if needed to maintain proper public road drainage.
5.) If wet conditions are anticipated, place geotextile fabric on the graded foundation to improve
stability.
6.) Place stone to dimensions and grade shown in the erosion /sediment control plan, leaving the
surface smooth and sloped for drainage.
7.) Divert all surface runoff and drainage from the stone pad to a sediment trap or basin.

0-Permanent Seeding Details
REQUIREMENTS
Site and seedbed preparation: Graded, and lime and fertilizer applied.
Plant species: Selected on the basis of soil type, soil pH, region of the state, time of year, and planned use of the area to
be seeded.
Mulch: Clean grain straw, hay, wood fiber, etc., to protect seedbed and encourage plant growth. The mulch may need to be
anchored to reduce removal by wind or water, or erosion control blankets may be considered.
APPLICATION
Permanently seed all final grade areas (e.g., landscape berms, drainage swales, erosion control structures, etc.) as each
is completed and all areas where additional work is not scheduled for a period of more than a year.
Site Preparation:
1.) Install practices needed to control erosion, sedimentation, and runoff prior to seeding. These include temporary and
permanent diversions, sediment traps and basins, silt fences, and straw bale dams (refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion
Control in Developing Areas, Practices 3.21, 3.22, 3.72, 3.73, 3.74, and 3.75).
2.) Add topsoil to achieve needed depth for establishment of vegetation (refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion Control in
Developing Areas, Practice 3.02).
3.) Grade the site and fill in depressions that can collect water.
Seedbed Preparation:
1.) Test soil to determine pH and nutrient levels. (Contact your county SWCD or Cooperative Extension office for
assistance and soils information, including available testing services.)
2.) If soil pH is unsuitable for the species to be seeded, apply lime according to test recommendations.
3.) Fertilize as recommended by the soil test. If testing was not done, consider applying 400 -600 lbs. /acre of
12 -12 -12 analysis, or equivalent, fertilizer.
4.) Till the soil to obtain a uniform seedbed, working the fertilizer and lime into the soil 2 -4 in. deep with a disk or
rake operated across the slope.
Seeding:
Optimum seeding dates are Mar. 1 -May 10 and Aug. 10 -Sept. 30. Permanent seeding done between May 10 and Aug.10
may need to be irrigated. As an alternative, use temporary seeding (refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion Control in
Developing Areas, Practice 3.11) until the preferred date for permanent seeding.
1.) Based on site conditions, soil pH, intended land use, and expected level of maintenance, select a seeding mixture
and rate from the table below.
2.) Apply seed uniformly with a drill or cultipacker- seeder or by broadcasting, and cover to a depth of 1/4 -1/2 in.
3.) If drilling or broadcasting, firm the seedbed with a roller or cultipacker.
4.) Mulch all seeded areas (refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion Control in Developing Areas, Practice 3.15). Consider
using erosion control blankets on sloping areas (refer to Indiana Handbook for Erosion Control in Developing Areas,
Practice 3.17). (NOTE: If seeding is done with a hydroseeder, fertilizer and mulch can be applied with the seed in a slurry
mixture.)
This table provides several seeding options. Additional seed species and mixtures are available commercially.
When selecting a mixture, consider site conditions, including soil properties (e.g., soil pH and drain age),
slope aspect and the tolerance of each species to shade and doughtness

For best results: (a) legume seed should be inoculated; (b) seeding mixtures containing legumes should preferably be
spring- seeded, although the grass may be fall- seeded and the legume frost seeded (Practice 3.13); and (c) if legumes
are fall- seeded, do so in early fall.
Tall fescue provides little cover for, and may be toxic to, some species of wildlife. The IDNR recognizes the need for
additional research on alternatives to tall fescue, such as buffalograss, orchard grass, smooth bromegrass, and
switch grass. This research, in conjunction with demonstration areas, should focus on erosion control characteristics, wildlife
toxicity, turf durability, and drought resistance.
NOTE: An oat or wheat companion or nurse crop may be used with any of the above permanent seeding mixtures. If so, it
is best to seed during the fall seeding period, especially after Sept.15, and at the following rates: spring oats- 1/4 to
3/4 bu. /acre; wheat -no more than Y bu. /acre.
MAINTENANCE
1.) Inspect periodically, especially after storm events, until the stand is successfully established. (Characteristics of a
successful stand include: vigorous dark green or bluish -green seedlings; uniform density with nurse plants, legumes, and
grasses well intermixed; green leaves; and the perennials remaining green throughout the summer, at least at the plant
base.)
2.) Plan to add fertilizer the following growing season according to soil test recommendations.
3.) Repair damaged, bare, or sparse areas by filling any gullies, re- fertilizing, over- or re- seeding, and mulching.
4.) If plant cover is sparse or patchy, review the plant materials chosen, soil fertility, moisture condition, and mulching;
then repair the affected area either by over seeding or by re- seeding and mulching after re- preparing the seedbed.
5.) If vegetation fails to grow, consider soil testing to determine acidity or nutrient deficiency problems. (Contact your
SWCD or Cooperative Extension office for assistance.)
6.) If additional fertilization is needed to get a satisfactory stand, do so according to soil test recommendations.
