Erosion & Construction Solutions is providing erosion and sediment control for the City of Crown Point's new Southeast Wastewater Treatment Plant on East 121st Avenue. The plant will take part of the city's flow off the existing system and reduce combined sewer overflows. The site borders a ditch, farm fields, and wooded slopes, so protecting the waterway comes first.

Working for Thieneman Construction, ECS installed roughly 9,500 feet of perimeter silt fence and Siltworm™ filter sock in summer 2026, then returned for safety fence, repairs, and relocations as work progressed. Ahead of a scheduled site audit, our crews completed fence repairs and installed SWPPP signage on short notice. We then added a floating turbidity curtain in the waterway, silt fence along the outfall pipe route, and fence marking the wetland edge.
