The top snowy-day photo of Aspen Ridge's silt fence crushed by dirt was made early afternoon Dec. 5, 2006
The lower photo of an Aspen Ridge storm-drain inlet was more recent. It is only about 200 feet away but out of view in the background of the top photo.
However, except for snow and leafless vegetation, the situation in both spots is the same. The articles below could eliminate such problems if the people doing the work would read them and, if the job was completed and the daily inspections required by law were done.

The article on protecting inlets for storm drains seems appropriate for developers in Fayetteville to read also.
