20100141468Automatic erosion control, water recovery and fire suppression system - The present invention relates to the state of the art automatic erosion control, fire suppression and water recovery storage system. Precipitation sensors automatically activate synchronized motor controls, activating the upper reel and lower tension reel constructing a repellent barrier, diverting and collecting water run-off thereby controlling and prohibiting over-saturation of the soil base, a direct cause of mudslides. Run-off is collected and stored in environmentally safe cisterns. Stored water supplies the incorporated fire suppression system for preventing and controlling fires caused by natural or man-made acts. The fire suppression system is controlled by automatic temperature sensors signals to activate the suppression system. When a threat of fire is over a signal is sent to terminate operations. This system is extremely effective in protecting and enabling the eco-systems by controlling over-saturation allowing a stronger root base. When weather conditions remain dry, the system automatically retracts the barrier for storage.06-10-2010
