By Day 3, the groundwork is set, and the system is ready to be activated.
With the shoreline framework now in place, the focus shifts to fill material and system readiness - a critical phase in SOXPRO’s 5 Part Installation System. SOXPRO is engineered to retain any fill material greater than 150 microns, giving projects the flexibility to use locally sourced soils while maintaining structural integrity and long term performance. Once integrated, this fill becomes the physical and biological backbone of the system.
At the staging area, organic fill is stockpiled alongside SOXPRO’s formulated active agent, with EvoGuard™ perimeter control maintaining full sediment containment throughout the process. The active agent is what distinguishes SOXPRO from traditional shoreline stabilization systems - it is specifically formulated to bind phosphorus and nitrogen, supporting nutrient capture as water moves through the stabilized shoreline.
Along the pond edge, fill is staged in preparation for Step 4 of the 5 Part System: washing the fill into the knitted mesh structure. This step allows the material to fully settle within the anchoring and mesh framework, conforming to the shoreline and setting the stage for vegetation, stability, and water quality performance.
This work is part of SOXPRO’s 2026 scientific validation initiative with Florida Atlantic University Harbor Branch. The data generated will support submission to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and advance SOXPRO’s pathway toward Appendix O under the Clean Waterways Stormwater Rule.
