Abstract:

Highway construction practices have historically been viewed as a major contributor of non-point source pollution. Damage control measures implemented for construction site erosion can include erosion control nets, open-weave geotextiles, geosynthetic mattings, erosion control blankets, loose mulches, hydro-mulches, and chemical soil binders. The Texas Department of Transportation is taking a proactive approach to erosion control research by investigating the use of shredded brush and composted organic waste from right-of-way clearing operations as erosion control measures. Testing was done at the TxDOT/TTI Hydraulics and Erosion Control Field Laboratory at the Texas A&M University Riverside Campus in a simulated highway environment.
