Coastline sediment and erosion control measures must be implemented to control soil erosion. One can erect barriers such as rock piles to protect certain areas from further erosion. If there are channels on the land, then they must be broken up in order to prevent formation of gullies. At places where there are gullies, proper structures and digging techniques must be used to support soil.
Sediment control fence installation can be made to control soil erosion. It is a cost-effective barrier for holding sediments on the site itself. The sediment fence is a especially designed geo textile material. It helps in retaining partials as large as 0,02mm allowing water to pass through it. The fence must be constructed as close as possible to follow the contours of the building site. The fabric should be pulled tightly and a support loop must be wrapped around the post to give additional strength.
