摘要 |
The water, sediment and erosion control apparatus of the present invention includes a water-permeable foam barrier extending generally longitudinal. The barrier has an upstream surface and a downstream surface. The apparatus also includes an apron extending laterally away from at least one surface of the barrier. The apparatus is reconfigurable for different applications by rotating the barrier relative to the apron. The method of the present invention comprises providing a reusable apparatus having an angled barrier and a protective apron, and anchoring the apparatus generally perpendicular to a natural flow of water, such that the water carrying the sediment is slowed and sediment is deposited upstream of the apparatus.
