Revegetation and Erosion Control Observations along the Trans-Alaska Pipeline: 1975 Construction Season.

Abstract

Procedures for revegetation and erosion control of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System during the initial construction phase are reviewed. Fertilizer and seed rates and schedules of application by major areas (sections) are presented. During the field season of 1975 CRREL personnel observed revegetation and erosion control practices along the entire length of the pipeline route. The types of problems and early successes are discussed. Thirty-eight photographs are presented of characteristic areas on which revegetation was initiated. A list of sites for follow up observations is presented. (Author)
