Recommendations and Comments

Maintenance	36 Wayne Simpson Agency	Y Approve		Aug 24, 2009	315
KYTC D9	48 Phil Mauney Agency	Y Approve	Would like to see this or similar products mentioned in erosion control standard drawings as equivalents where applicable.	Aug 21, 2009	304
KYTC D5	76 dav kessinger Agency	Y Approve	The average bid price for a Silt Trap Type B for 2008 was $160.00 +/-. For the cost break down in Texas $160.00 would be 32 ft worth of 18” sock. If this product can be used in place of Type B’s, the cost per use and ease of placement would both be a benefit.	Jun 04, 2009	287
Ky Assoc. of Hwy Contractors	47 Michael LaRue Agency	Y Approve		Jun 04, 2009	285
KYTC D6	62 Robert Hill Agency	Y Approve	Seems like an acceptable option to our silt fence and silt checks. Probably more expensive but looks like it would be more effective.	May 22, 2009	282
