Standard Specification for Elemental Impurity Limits in Erosion Control Products used for Land Application

1.1 This standard provides a specification for elemental impurity limits in erosion control products used for land application. Erosion control products may include but are not limited to: hydraulically-applied erosion control products, rolled erosion control products, sediment retention devices, gabions and mattresses, and articulated concrete block revetments.

1.2 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.3 All observed and calculated values shall conform to the guidelines for significant digits and rounding established in Practice D6026, unless superseded by this specification.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
