Objective:
The objectives of this research project were to: (1) prepare and present two workshops at the Integrated Petroleum Environmental Consortium (IPEC) meeting to develop consensus among leading researchers, industry, and environmental agencies on design and performance criteria for new silt fence technology to be used in the petroleum industry; (2) develop threshold design criteria for sediment control, effluent guidelines under Phase II Storm Water Program (SWP) based on a regional impact analysis; (3) prove the Failure Avoidance and Effective Silt Fence Technology (FAEST) silt fence design and implementation concept under laboratory and field conditions where current silt fence fails because of: (a) flow concentrations that result from current installation technology, and (b) failure to trap clays and fine silts addresses through flow barriers; (4) writer proposed best management practices (BMP) guidelines and develop design aids for the technology; and (5) develop deisnn requirements for machine systems to install fences.
