The proper installation is to dig a trench approximately 6" deep along the line where the silt
fence will be placed. The silt fence material lines the trench and then filled with dirt to anchor
the bottom of the fence. Then the post/stakes are installed no more than 4' apart and to a
depth or 1 1/2 to 2 feet, minimum, to prevent the stakes from pulling out of the ground. Then,
lastly, the fence material is secured to the posts/stakes with wire or zip ties at the top, middle,
and bottom to ensure there isn't a fence failure.
Builder will adhere to Upper Trinity guidelines for residential wells.
New wells will be at least 50' from property lines and 150' from existing
