erosion control blanket/fabric
Explanation:
From www.geotextiles.com
Erosion Control: riverbanks, lake and ocean shorelines, canals, revetments, scour protection, etc. the geotextile is placed beneath riprap or other armor system to retain fine soil and allow the free flow of water. Blankets, like SuperGro, are also consider when vegetative growth is all that is required for erosion control.
