Federal and state regulations require that turbidity and sediment be controlled. Because of this, the Clean Water Act and the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NDPES) require that federal and state agencies enforce these laws. The most efficient method of compliance for these regulations is through the use of floating turbidity/silt curtains.

The DOT has three specific types of curtains required for different situations. ACME Environmental custom-manufactures all three types to create a reliable method of controlling silt and sediment. Our curtains are used at construction sites, discharge locations, dredging operations, and remediation projects.
