ABSTRACT:
A modular erosion and sediment control barrier. The linear modular erosion and sediment control barrier is constructed of reinforced fiber logs joined end-to-end or side-to-side. Each fiber log is made of a quantity of loose fibers retained in a reinforced tubular casing having at least one closed end wherein the fibers are retained in the casing by either a second closed end or by a plug. The coupler fiber logs are constructed with a reinforced tubular casing comprising at least two layers of a flexible material. The open-ended reinforced coupler fiber log includes an extended section which is peeled back and folds over the end of the coupler fiber log during storage and transportation. When deployed, the extended section is unfolded to receive the end of an adjacent fiber log. Two fiber logs, whether having two closed ends or a single closed end, are secured together by a cord and hooks.
