American <br />Excelsior i <br />CompanyeqW AEC Premier Straw"Wattles <br />Earth Science Division Straw Sediment Control Device <br />Installation <br />AEC Premier Straw Wattles shall be installed on slopes or in <br />channels to intercept water flow and collect sediment on site. AEC <br />Premier Straw Wattles are typically installed in a two inch deep <br />trench that is constructed along the contour, perpendicular to the <br />slope or direction of flow. Ends of the wattles shall be turned up the <br />slope, so as to retain water and prevent its release from the end of <br />the wattle. <br />Wattles shall be secured to the subgrade by wooden stakes spaced <br />every four lineal feet across the length of the wattle. Stakes shall be <br />driven through the center of the wattle and into the ground a <br />minimum of 24", with less than two inches projecting above the top <br />of the wattle. A stake shall be placed within two feet of the end of the <br />wattle. The installation process may be expedited by using a metal <br />rod to create pilot holes for wooden stakes. <br />G When joining two wattles, tightly abut both <br />. , r ends or overlap the wattles approximately six <br />MMMIQMM inches. If wattles are joined together by <br />abutting the ends, tie the ends together using <br />_q heavy twine or plastic locking ties. <br />When installing in a channel bottom, AEC Premier Straw Wattle <br />installation shall continue three feet above the anticipated high <br />water mark. <br />AEC Premier Straw Wattles shall remain in place until fully <br />established vegeation and root systems are present and can <br />survive on their own. Wattles that are not removed will degrade <br />in-place. <br />Project specifications should be reviewed for any unique <br />installation requirements. <br />AEG PREMIER STRAW WATTLES <br />Staking Pattern Guide <br />�I. <br />Wattle Cross Section On Wattle Cross Section: CRI <br />Bare Soil Erosion Control Blanket <br />ate,.. v.m.• s.e, nw. sro. n AEC Premier Wood Stake AEC Premier <br />Star Wattle Stray Weak <br />2' Deep Trench (Typical) ..� <br />Erosion control / , .
