2 December 12, 2011 Mr. Evan Rothblatt AASHTO/NTPEP 444 North Capitol Street, NW, Suite 249 Washington, D.C Subject: Channel Testing over Loam of East Coast Erosion Blanket s ECP-3, Triple Net Polymer Fiber Matting manufactured in Bernville, PA. Dear Mr. Rothblatt: This letter report presents the results for large-scale channel erosion tests performed on ECP-3, Triple Net Polymer Fiber Matting, over Loam. Included are data developed for target hydraulic shears ranging from 0.5 to 3+ psf (0.02 to kpa) for the unvegetated condition and from 1 to 13+ psf (0.04 to kpa) for the vegetated condition. All testing work was performed in general accordance with the ASTM D 6460, Standard Test Method for Determination of Rolled Erosion Control Product (RECP) Performance in Protecting Earthen Channels from Stormwater-Induced Erosion. The procedure was modified to use only single replicates when testing vegetated channels. Generated results were used to develop the following permissible or limiting shear (τ limit ) and limiting velocity (V limit ) for the tested material: ECP-3, Triple Net Polymer Fiber Matting & 4.5 staples/sy Product Unvegetated 6+ Week Vegetated 1+ Year Vegetated Condition Condition Condition Actual growth period, wks τ limit * 12.3* V limit * 25.0* * = ASTM D 6460 requires that three test replicates be performed using identical procedures to obtain an average threshold of performance. Thus, the results of vegetated testing, being single replicates of each condition, cannot be considered as an average threshold of performance. TRI is pleased to present this final report. Please feel free to call if we can answer any questions or provide any additional information. Sincerely, C. Joel Sprague, P.E.

Testing oversight is provided by C. Joel Sprague, P.E. The large-scale testing is performed in a rectangular flume having a 10% slope (unvegetated condition) or 20% slope (vegetated condition) using a loamy soil test section. The concentrated flow is produced by raising gates to allow gravity flow from an adjacent pond. At least four sequential, increasing flows are applied to each test section for 30 minutes (unvegetated condition) or 1 hour (vegetated condition) each to achieve a range of hydraulic shear stresses in order to define the permissible, or limiting, shear stress, τ limit, which is the shear stress necessary to cause an average of 0.5 inch of soil loss over the entire channel bottom. Testing is performed in accordance with ASTM D 6460, though the procedure was modified to use only single replicates when testing vegetated channels. Tables and graphs of shear versus soil loss are generated from the accumulated data. Rolled Erosion Control Product (RECP) The following information and index properties were determined from the supplied product. Table 1.

Compaction is verified to be 90% (± 3%) of Proctor Standard density using ASTM D 698 (sand cone method). The test channels undergo a standard preparation procedure prior to each test. First, any rills or depressions resulting from previous testing are filled in with test soil. The soil surface is replaced to a depth of 1 inch and groomed to create a channel bottom that is level side-to-side and at a smooth slope top-to-bottom. Finally, a vibrating plate compactor is run over the renewed channel surface. If a vegetated condition is to be tested, grass seed (tall fescue) is applied to the plot at the rate of 500 seeds per square foot. The submitted erosion control product is then installed using the anchors and anchorage pattern directed by the client. Installation of Erosion Control Product in Test Channel As noted, the submitted erosion control product is installed as directed by the client. For the tests reported herein, the erosion control product was anchored using a diamond anchorage pattern consisting of 2 x 8 steel staples to create an anchorage density of approximately 4.5 anchors per square yard. Specific Test Procedure Immediately prior to testing, the initial soil surface elevation readings are made at predetermined cross-sections. The channel is then exposed to sequential 30-minute (unvegetated condition) or 1-hour (vegetated condition) flows having target hydraulic shear stresses selected to create at least three flow events below and one flow event above the shear stress level that results in a cummulative average soil loss of ½-inch. During the testing, flow depth and corresponding flow measurements are taken at the predetermined cross-section locations. Between flow events, the flow is stopped and soil surface elevation measurements are made to facilitate calculation of soil loss. The flow is then restarted at the next desired flow (shear) level. Pictures of channel flows and resulting soil loss are shown in Figures 6 thru 12.

7 ECP-3, Triple Net Polymer Fiber Matting, over Loam Channel Erosion Testing December 12, 2011 Page 7 TEST RESULTS Average soil loss and the associated hydraulic shear calculated from flow and depth measurements made during the testing are the principle data used to determine the performance of the product tested. This data is entered into a spreadsheet that transforms the flow depth and velocity into an hydraulic shear stress and the soil loss measurements into an average Clopper Soil Loss Index (CSLI). Measured and calculated data is summarized in Table 3. A graph of shear versus soil loss for the protected condition is shown in Figure 13. The associated velocities and time of vegetation growth are plotted in Figures 14 and 15, respectively. The graphs include the best regression line fit to the test data to facilitate a determination of the limiting shear stress, τ limit,, and limiting velocity, V limit,.

Typical 1+ Year Control Vegetation-Only Before Testing Figure 21. Typical 6+ Week Control Vegetation-Only After Testing 5 Figure 23. Typical 1+ Year Control Vegetation-Only After Testing CONCLUSIONS Rectangular channel (flume) tests were performed in accordance with ASTM D 6460 using Loam soil protected with an RECP. Three replicates of the unvegetated condition and one replicate each of the 6+ week and 1+ year vegetated conditions were performed. Testing in a rectangular (vertical wall) channel was conducted to achieve increasing shear levels in an attempt to cause at least 0.5-inch of soil loss. Figure 13 shows the maximum bottom shear stress and associated soil loss from each flow event. Figure 14 presents the velocity versus soil loss. Figure 15 relates the permissible shear stress to the length of time the vegetation had been allowed to grow. Figure 16 relates channel liner roughness (Manning s n ) to flow depth. Together, this data describes the relevant performance characteristics of the tested RECP. It is important to note that ASTM D 6460, the procedure used to guide the testing reported herein, requires that three test replicates be performed using identical procedures to obtain an average threshold of performance. Thus, the results of the testing of vegetated channels reported herein, being single replicates of each condition, cannot be considered as an average threshold of performance. The data in Figures 17a, 17b, 18 and 19, the calculated energy grade lines for each channel and shear level, the retained vegetation at each shear level, and the control condition shear stress vs. soil loss relationships, are included to provide a reference for the reported test results.
