Lake Erosion Control Specifications
These specifications are
based on the 2008 Charlotte Engineering report. They were approved at the
October PBCA board meeting.
The specifications of
allowed methods in Placido lakes are:
1. Aquatic
plantings/prevegetated mats
2. Coir rolls
(turtle logs)
3. Coir fiber matrix
system
4. Geoweb cellular
confinement system
5. Geotextile tube
erosion control
6. Seawalls are only
allowed in lakes where seawalls already exist – Lakes #3, #6, #7, #8, #9,
#10
Seawalls can be either
wood or vinyl, with wood or concrete caps.
Since methods #3 and #4
require lowering of the lakes, they must be coordinated with PBCA throughout
the project.
Any proposed erosion
control work by a resident or neighborhood must be approved by the DRC, which
consults the Lake Committee.
