New Naval’s STS Series Silt & Turbidity Screen Boom provides turbidity control and contains suspended silt, marine litter, floating pollutants or detrimental organisms such as jellyfish. The screen features a monofilament filter that allows water and natural currents to proceed unhindered while containing silt and similar materials. The boom is ideal for highly erosional locations where sediment run off or storm water pollution can cause damage or distress to delicate environments and ecosystems, including construction or marine repair projects where sediment run-off and disturbances must be regulated and contained.
