High visibility plastic fence shall be composed of a high-density polyethylene material and shall <br /> be at least 4 feet in height. Posts far the fencing shall be steel or wood and placed every 6 feet on <br /> center(maximum) or as needed to ensure rigidiry. The fencing shall be fastened to the post every <br /> 6 inches with a polyethylene tie. On long continuous lengths of fencing, a tension wire or rope <br /> shall be used as a top stringer to prevent sagging between posts. The fence color shall be high <br /> visibility orange. The fence tensile strength shall be 360 pounds/feet using the American Society <br /> for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D4595 testing method. <br /> 2.

It is difficult <br /> to determine exactly where access to these projects will take place; additional materials will enable the <br /> contractor to install them where needed. <br /> Volume II— Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention <br /> 3-4 <br />
