A sediment protection
control is a practice • Washing

to keep eroded soil • Silt fence
on a construction • Sand bund
site, so that it does
not wash off and • Earth Drain

OBJECTIVE ASPECT METHOD OF CONTROL
A sediment
control is a
practice or
device
designed to IMPACT
keep eroded
soil on a
construction
site, so that it
does not wash
off and cause
water
pollution to a
nearby public
drain, stream,
or river.
PONDING DURING RAINY SEASON
OBJECTIVE METHOD OF CONTROL
To control the sediment • Ensure your
discharge from escaping workplace is cleaned
the site area that may up after finishing work
lead to public • Any holes dug up
interference and also need to be covered or
avoiding the potential filled to avoid ponding
breeding area for • Discharge ponding
mosquito that may lead water to appropriate
to dangerous mosquitoes silt trap or basin
like Aedes. • Liaise with other
contractors and
environmental team
to ensure no possible
unwanted ponding
can be produced at
site
