Bidding On A Turbidity Control Barrier Job For A Pond

by Rick
(Hooksett, New Hampshire)

We are bidding a town job requiring turbidity control for a pond. I am assuming the curtain is acceptable and because it is not a DOT project we would use standard. Do you have estimated pricing per foot? We are looking at the silt curtain Type 1 Economy. we are dredging 7,500 square feet. Water is a NH pond with no use - dredging for a fire pond. Approximately 75' in length. The plans do not specify. Is 5' standard? Also - this is literally a stand alone pond. Is the Type 1 Silt Barrier the most cost effective? Please quote the 50' length and the 100' length. I'm not sure which one they'll decide to use. A few other questions. Can these be reused? Do you provide the anchors and all items needed to install?

Thank you for asking. We can build the type 1 turbidity barrier for you. 5' is standard. Yes, the economy is the most cost effective. If it is not a DOT project you can use the economy. They come in 50 and 100' section lengths. They can be reused. On the type 1 there are no anchor points so any accessories we provide are not useful. You can use rope and concrete filled buckets or cinder blocks, etc. to anchor the turbidity barrier.
