TRM installation will be in accordance with recommendations developed by the Erosion Control <br />Technical Council (ECTC, 2006) or the individual manufacturer's recommendations. <br />General installation steps are as follows: <br />1. Prepare a stable and firm soil surface free of large rocks and other obstructions. Apply <br />appropriate seed mixture. <br />2. Install TRM after application of seed, mulches {if applicable) and other soil amendments, <br />unless soil in-filling is required. If soil in-filling is needed, install TRM, apply seed and other <br />amendments and brush or rake topsoil into TRM matrix. <br />3. Anchor top of blanket at end of channel section using trench and/or staples/stakes. <br />4. Unroll center blanket in direction of water flow on bottom of channel. Securely fasten <br />blanket to soil surface with staples/stakes in accordance with manufacturer's staple pattern <br />guide. If available, use colored dot pattern corresponding to the manufacturer's <br />recommended staple pattern. In applicable, overlap adjacent blankets and staple. <br />5. Anchor full-length margin of blankets at top of side slopes with a row of staples/stakes. <br />Backfill soil material over final 12-inches of blanket margin and compact. <br />References Cited <br />Barfield, B.J., Warner, R.C. and C.T.
