 Wisconsin DNR Type A inlet protection is applicable to field inlets surrounded by unpaved surfaces. A frame (typically from 2" x 4" lumber) is constructed and staked to completely surround the inlet, with Type FF fabric attached and trenched into the ground. Wisconsin DNR Type A inlet protection is applicable to field inlets surrounded by unpaved surfaces.

 These structures are constructed with concrete blocks, laid lengthwise on their sides with a height of 12-24 inches.  The blocks should be wrapped with a wire mesh, overlain with non-woven, pervious geotextile fabric, to prevent stone from washing through the openings in the block, which should be supported by 2 x 4 inch wood studs placed through the outer holes in the block.  Geotextile fabric should be placed around the perimeter of the structure, extending at least 12 inches from the block.  1-3 inch washed stone should be placed on top of the fabric and against the block.  The stone should be no more than 2 inches from the top of the concrete block with a slope of 2:1 or flatter. These structures are constructed with concrete blocks, laid lengthwise on their sides with a height of 12-24 inches.  The blocks should be wrapped with a wire mesh, overlain with non-woven, pervious geotextile fabric, to prevent stone from washing through the openings in the block, which should be supported by 2 x 4 inch wood studs placed through the outer holes in the block.  Geotextile fabric should be placed around the perimeter of the structure, extending at least 12 inches from the block.  1-3 inch washed stone should be placed on top of the fabric and against the block.  The stone should be no more than 2 inches from the top of the concrete block with a slope of 2:1 or flatter.
