Sediment trapping field guide

The Silkwood Drainage Board conducted a GGIP investigating different sediment trap designs and the benefits of installing traps. The link below is to a field guide developed by the group which covers:

  • identifying the need and benefits of sediment traps
  • wet tropics field tested sediment trap designs
  • design data on sediment trap performance
  • photos of retro fitted operational sediment traps
