How to prepare your site for winter shutdown: Managing water quality and pollution risks
Is your construction site prepared for its annual winter shutdown? Join our free webinar for top tips on staying compliant and avoiding incidents.
Working in Water
Working in water can be challenging for constructors but Frog Environmental's bubble barrier technology and silt products are designed to make projects run smoothly.
Why it pays to be Rain Ready
Discover how being Rain Ready® can help construction companies manage water quality more effectively
Bubble Curtains and how they prevent silt
Bubble Tubing® is proven effective in stopping up to 90% of sediment dispersal.
Zero carbon water treatment systems
In this article we share how our sustainable and practical zero carbon operation water treatment system can protect watercourses and reduce operational costs and carbon footprint for contractors.
Free Silt Control Toolbox Talk info sheet
We've put together a handy planning tool to help your team manage the risk of causing a silt pollution event from your construction site.
Silt management on construction sites with constrained linear footprints
We make use of interceptor ditches to design passive, low carbon, rain-ready silt management systems for linear construction sites to prevent pollution.
Effect of check dams on runoff, sediment yield and retention on small semiarid watersheds
A study on check dams.
Impacts of flocculation on sediment basin performance and design
This study evaluated a system consisting of three fibre check dams in a lined ditch discharging to sediment basins that differed in their configuration.
Management practices for micropollutant control in road runoff
Management practices for the control of micropollutants found in road runoff: from the “invention” of technical solutions to the “design” of innovative practices.
Flocculated sediments can reduce the size of sediment basin
Our results suggests that current sediment basin design could be modified when chemically-assisted settling is implemented, taking up less space and cost in construction sites.
Flocculated sediment and runoff quality improved by polyacrylamide
This study emphasises that the passive treatment of stormwater runoff using GPAM is a very effective method of flocculating sediments in turbid water.
