Bastrop Lost Pines Habitat Recovery Project

Erosion control is the practice of preventing or controlling wind or water erosion in agriculture, land development and construction. This usually involves the creation of some sort of physical barrier, such as vegetation or rock, to absorb some of the energy of the wind or water that is causing the erosion.

Silt Fencing

Silt Fence is the most commonly used fabric for erosion control in residential and commercial construction. Silt Fence is made from woven polypropylene yarns, which is designed to block the sediment while letting the water slowly flow through the fabric.

Hydromulch & Hydroseed

For medium to large scale projects, Hydroseeding & Hydromulch is the most economical and basic form of seed establishment utilized for turf & native grasses, wildflowers, and erosion control mixes. The “1-Step Method” consists of a 4-Part Slurry:

• EarthGuard Fiber Matrix
• Fertilizer component tailored to site conditions
• Hydromulch fiber to aid in uniform seed disbursement & moisture retention
• Tackifier to bind the slurry for uniform seed to soil contact during establishment

BFM/SFM - Bonded Fiber Matrix & Stabilized Fiber Matrix

A 1-Step Application, but is enhanced with an engineered fiber product containing additional mechanical or hydraulic bonding agents.

BFM or SFM application can be applied without seed and fertilizer to reduce erosion and increase water shed opportunities on areas where vegetation is NOT desired.

EarthGuard FM Fire Rehabilitation

EarthGuard Fiber Matrix (FM) EarthGuard Fiber Matrix has been used on 1000's of acres for stabilization and re-vegetation. Unlike other spray-on products, EarthGuard Fiber Matrix offers the following advantages in fire rehabilitation situations:

It is molecularly designed to bind soil and ash particles together making the flocculated particles too large to be transported by water or wind.
It requires less fiber mulch resulting in reduced aerial drops per acre.
During application, EarthGuard Fiber Matrix requires less water compared to other effective spray-on products, resulting in reduced aerial drops per acre.
It does not harden and prevent water infiltration and seed emergence.
It is field proven to be environmentally benign during application and throughout field service life.
It is designed to last throughout a winter season allowing seeds the time they need to properly germinate and grow while maintaining soil stability.
It is laboratory proven to be one of the most effective products tested (CA & TX DOTs).
It is approved for use by the National Park Service, FHWA, BLM and over 20 State DOTs.
