Silt fence shall prevent soil carried by runoff water from going beneath, through, or <br />over the top of the silt fence, but shall allow the water to pass through the fence. <br />. Silt fence is not intended to treat concentrated flows, nor is it intended to treat sub- <br />stantial amounts of overland flow. Convey any concentrated flows through the <br />drainage system to a sediment pond. <br />Do not construct silt fences in streams or use in V-shaped ditches. Silt fences do <br />not provide an adequate method of silt control for anything deeper than sheet or <br />overland flow. <br />2014 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington <br />Volume 11 - Chapter 4 - Page 368 <br />
