Answer Options
A
Material choice: stabilized construction entrance
B
sediment basin or trap
C
silt fence or inlet protection as located
D
erosion-control blanket on slope

Why This Is the Correct Answer

silt fence or inlet protection as located best matches the stated condition. The other choices are real construction options in the same family, but they fit different field conditions.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: Material choice: stabilized construction entrance

Material choice: stabilized construction entrance addresses a neighboring field issue, but not the condition or method control required for temporary erosion control.

Option B: sediment basin or trap

sediment basin or trap addresses a neighboring field issue, but not the condition or method control required for temporary erosion control.

Option D: erosion-control blanket on slope

erosion-control blanket on slope addresses a neighboring field issue, but not the condition or method control required for temporary erosion control.

Memory Technique

Temporary Erosion method for Manager Checking: condition first, tool second.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: tab Principles and Practices of Commercial Construction, 10th Edition to Sitework methods; erosion and sediment control installation; verify the construction method, material selection, equipment choice, or work sequence that fits the field condition.
