Bayou Backer Erosion Control is a wave energy reducer and land stabilizer that is suited for wetlands protection and revegitation.
Long strips of plastic are inserted 3' to 4' into the silt and mud.
In water 2' to 5' deep, these act like grass or seaweed to trap passing sediments .
This becomes the footing of future plantings.
Wave reduction testing was performed at Louisiana State University Dec. of '07.
Currently, an accretion test is underway near the Intracoastal Waterway
