Contractor Tames Slope Stabilization Project

摘要

Slope stabilization projects can be challenging-exposed grades offer a daunting task for equipment access and can pose dangerous threats to crews. When the slopes are part of final vegetation on a landfill, those challenges increase substantially. Traditional erosion control matting is effective, but time consuming to install. Landfill final cover projects are notorious for their lack of organic matter, making establishment of vegetation a dicey proposition. Hydrograss Technologies President Bob Arello has found a solution which is not only faster but less expensive as well, a benefit to everyone involved - especially the General Contractor footing the bill. Arello figures he has handled "thousands" of slope stabilization projects, but a project at the Sullivan County Landfill in Monticello, New York stands out in his memory.
