Project Information

The objective of this project is to develop woolen Erosion Control Blankets and evaluate those that have the greatest potential to be used for roadside reclamation and re-vegetation projects by the MDT and other transportation agencies.  We will select woolen ECBs with the greatest potential to outperform coconut – straw ECBs (current standard practice) while being cost competitive.
