Proper placement is critical for the effectiveness of a silt fence to ensure it intercepts runoff before the water gains too much velocity. Typically, these barriers are installed along the perimeter of a construction site or at the base of a slope where sheet flow is expected to occur. It is important to place the silt fence on the contour of the land so that water does not pool at a single low point, which could cause the fabric to tear or the stakes to fail. By surrounding disturbed areas, the barrier acts as a final line of defense against sediment migration into non-construction zones.
