Proper installation and maintenance will enhance the performance of Jersey Silt Sock. Please note that project specifications may supersede these guidelines. Refer to the regulatory authority or project engineer for detailed installation procedures.
Install silt sock perpendicular to flow with ends curled slightly upstream to prevent high water from going around the ends. Use sock to slow and spread water to reduce channeling and erosion.
A pyramid of smaller diameter silt socks will increase effective height of the device when larger diameter socks are not readily available or easy to install.
Silt sock can remain in place until disturbed areas have been stabilized or successfully vegetated. To remove sock, cut open and spread filler material and accumulated sediment into the final landscape grade. Remove netting from the job site.
