Environmental Fencing: Protecting Land & Waterways in North Georgia

Why Environmental Fencing is Essential

In Ellijay, Jasper, and Blue Ridge, environmental fencing plays a crucial role in erosion control, sediment management, and environmental protection. Whether used for construction sites, agricultural properties, or conservation areas, these barriers help prevent soil runoff, protect water quality, and maintain regulatory compliance.

What is Environmental Fencing?

Environmental fencing is a temporary or permanent barrier designed to control sediment, wildlife movement, and erosion. Common types include:
✅ Silt Fencing – Controls runoff and prevents sediment from entering streams and lakes.
✅ Tree Protection Fencing – Preserves root zones of valuable trees during construction.
✅ Wildlife Fencing – Keeps animals from wandering into hazardous areas.
✅ Erosion Control Barriers – Stabilizes slopes and prevents soil loss on disturbed land.

Common Issues Without Environmental Fencing

🚧 Sediment Pollution – Soil runoff can clog waterways, harming aquatic life.
🚧 Erosion & Land Degradation – Uncontrolled runoff leads to loss of topsoil.
🚧 Construction Compliance Violations – Many developments require fencing to meet local and federal regulations.
🚧 Wildlife Intrusion – Without barriers, animals may enter work zones, causing safety concerns.
