Engineered Sediment Control Systems

SCS Manufacturing Inc. designs and fabricates high-performance sediment tanks tailored for groundwater and storm water control applications. Built for contractors, environmental firms, and site managers who require reliable water filtration during excavation, drilling, or dewatering activities, our tanks are a critical part of your jobsite compliance and environmental protection strategy.

Purpose-Built for Efficiency and Compliance

SCS sediment tanks are used to remove solids and suspended particles from water before it is released back into the environment or redirected to treatment or reuse systems. They are essential wherever clean water discharge is required to meet environmental and regulatory compliance. Common applications include:

From mining and roadwork to commercial construction and site remediation, our sediment tanks provide the capacity, flow control, and sedimentation performance needed for modern industrial demands.

Designed with Purpose. Built for Impact.

Every jobsite presents unique challenges. That’s why SCS sediment tanks are purpose-built to match your specific environmental management goals. We collaborate with your project team to ensure the design accounts for inflow rates, site layout, filtration targets, and local discharge regulations.

Customizable Design to Fit Your Site

No two job sites are alike. SCS offers full customization options to make sure your sediment tank performs optimally in your field conditions. Our design team will work with your engineering or operations personnel to define dimensions, sedimentation flow paths, baffle requirements, and accessibility features.

Customization Options Include:

  • Internal weir and baffle systems for staged separation
  • Removable or adjustable partitions
  • Forklift pockets and lifting lugs for crane or machine handling
  • Standard and custom inlet/outlet sizes and locations
  • Sampling ports for environmental monitoring
  • Sloped floors or cleanout ports for easy sediment removal
  • Optional linings for chemical or hydrocarbon resistance

All tanks are constructed from structural-grade steel and finished with high-performance coatings to resist corrosion and wear. Tanks can be designed for roll-off, hooklift, or crane access depending on your handling needs.

Durable. Dependable. Made in Canada.

Manufactured in Nanaimo, BC, all SCS sediment tanks are built by Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) certified professionals. Our welders and fabrication specialists follow strict quality control procedures to ensure each unit meets both structural and environmental standards.

Each tank is fully inspected prior to shipping and can be delivered with MTRs (Material Test Reports), welding logs, and coating system documentation upon request. Built to handle heavy-duty use, these tanks are ideal for long-term use, seasonal deployment, or multi-phase construction projects.

Innovative Silt Fencing Systems

In addition to our steel sediment tanks, SCS offers a modern alternative to traditional silt fencing: a reusable, modular frame system with custom filter bags. These rigid-frame units are designed for rapid installation and can be configured to suit the footprint and flow path of your site.

System Benefits:

  • Modular assembly allows for variable lengths and onsite repositioning
  • Custom filter bags serve as catchment basins for sediment-heavy runoff
  • Minimal ground disruption and easier site cleanup
  • Quick bag replacement without trenching or ground repair

When the filter bag reaches capacity or the project phase ends, simply open the discharge end, cut the ties, and remove the bag. All sediment is contained—reducing manual labor, site hazards, and cleanup costs.

This system is ideal for temporary works, environmentally sensitive areas, or perimeter control where conventional silt fence is difficult to install or maintain.

SCS silt fencing provides a faster, safer, and more efficient solution for sediment control on any jobsite.

Built for Projects of Every Size

Whether you need a single sediment tank or a fleet of containment systems, SCS Manufacturing delivers tailored solutions at scale. We serve clients across Western Canada and beyond, supporting projects in civil construction, heavy industry, municipal infrastructure, oil and gas, and environmental services.

Whether you need a single unit or a fleet for a large-scale project, SCS Manufacturing delivers custom sediment control solutions that keep your site efficient and environmentally compliant.
