Cost-effective and Sustainable Road Slope Stabilization and Erosion Control

Book Description
"In the United States it is estimated that 75 percent of all roads are low volume roads maintained by some 35,000 local agencies. Low volume roads often omit surface slope protection, and this can lead to slope failure, erosion, and maintenance, safety, and ecological issues. This report presents information on cost effective and sustainable road slope stabilization techniques, with a focus on shallow or near surface slope stabilization and related erosion control methods used on low volume roads. To fully address this topic, planning and site investigation are discussed, as well as erosion control techniques, soil bioengineering and biotechnical techniques, mechanical stabilization, and earthwork techniques. Information presented in this report was obtained through an extensive literature review, and from survey and interview responses. From the survey responses, 30 individuals were interviewed based on the information they made available in the survey. A total of 25 interviews were conducted over the phone, and in two cases written responses were received"--Preface.

Book Description
Broadens the review of models and techniques from solely watershed loading models to include receiving water models and ecological assess. techniques and models. It summarizes avail. techniques and models that assess and predict physical, chemical, and biol. conditions in waterbodies. Includes info. regarding: a wide range of watershed-scale loading models; field-scale loading models; receiving water models, including eutrophication/water quality models, toxics models, and hydrodynamic models; integrated modeling systems that, for example, link watershed-scale loading with receiving water processes; and ecological techniques and models that can be used to assess &/or predict the status of habitat, single species, or biol. community.
