. 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 ll-Chapter 4 -Page 368 <br />
