Abstract:

The Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) has considerable challenges stabilizing soils on highway shoulders following construction activities. Exposed soils can be prone to erosion and offsite sediment flow during precipitation events. NDOR primarily uses perennial vegetation in concert with erosion control products to stabilize exposed soils. Unfortunately, establishment is often slow or unsuccessful because of a number of environmental and management variables. Once established, the stands of seeded species and some volunteer species provide good ground cover and persist. The main issue is the inconsistent time frame from the exposed site to a fully established and stable site.
