specifications and followed the recommended
staple patterns (see Figure 6).
Observations
According to Central Landscaping,
the vegetation establishment exceeded
expectations. Furthermore, the TRM
has controlled all noticeable erosion and
protected the containment structure (see
Figure 7). Central Landscaping attributes
the excellent performance to the
fact that the TRM has a specific gravity
of greater than 1 and it does not float.
" When TRMs don't float during hydraulic
events, the soil and seed stay in place
hastening re-vegetation for improved
short-term and long-term protection, "
according to the company.
Results
Vistra, CEC and Central Landscaping
worked together to design a solution,
select the correct BMPs and execute
the plan. In total, more than 80,000
square yards (66,890 m2) of TRM was
installed on this project. The TRM was
able to handle the flow volumes and
shear stresses that the vegetation alone
would not withstand. The design eliminated
erosion and prevented undercutting
and soil loss. The completed
project will provide the long-term protection
that the site and surrounding
area requires. G
