Turbidity Barrier TY 3 DOT, SZ. 5’ x 50’

_{Type 3 DOT FLOATING TURBIDITY BARRIERS is a special adaption of the Type 2 FLOATING TURBIDITY BARRIERS. Approximately 20 % of the area of the barrier skirt fabric is replaced with a polypropylene filter fabric conforming to some State DOT specifications. The filter fabric is inserted to reduce the pressure on the curtain while retaining silt. In actual practice, a filter fabric which is woven tightly enough to retain silt will not significantly reduce pressure on the curtain.}

_{Conversely, if the filter fabric is woven loose enough to reduce the pressure on the curtain, it will not be able to retain most silt and sediment particles. In addition, the filter fabric cannot be heat-sealed, and must be sewn into the curtain, resulting in a reduction in curtain strength and longevity.}

_{The anchorage and installation must be designed to meet the site conditions. Barrier sections are connected by rope lacing or nylon ties which can be furnished by L & M Supply. FLOATING TURBIDITY BARRIERS installed in moving water, tidal areas, and windy areas must be anchored to stay in position. Let us know which of the above is right for your specific job and we will add to the above quotation!}

_{Types 1.DOT, 2.DOT, and 3.DOT MEET OR EXCEED ALL KNOWN FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTAL SPECIFICATIONS, INCLUDING NPDES PHASE II REQUIREMENTS.}
