In addition, My before pictures have yellow notes on them that should <br /> correspond with the report, and after pictures with white notes on them that should correspond <br /> with the report. <br /> We followed the restoration steps 1-7 except for the fact that we could not get compost soil logs <br /> due to availability and time of year (wet compost does not blow well and clogs the blower trucks, <br /> there are only 3 companies that blow compost in the Twin Cities that I know of). We used <br /> woodchip logs in place, the main difference is that you cannot seed into these, but I feel it is <br /> more important to stabilize the bank going into winter versus waiting for soil logs that may have <br /> had to go into spring. <br /> We used compost supplied by the Mulch Store in St. Boni. to fill in the 2" layer between the <br /> logs. <br /> We used .5 LB blue gamma, .5 lb Canaday Rye, and 1 LB winter wheat supplied by Twin Cities <br /> Seed for seeding between the logs. A similar seed blend was used ahead of time to stabilize <br /> behind the walls before the report was completed (you can see that has started to germinate in the <br /> after photos). <br /> We used an excelsior blanket similar to the North American Green SC-150 BN erosion blanket. <br /> The work was completed on 10/17/13 and it does not look like there has been any erosion with <br /> 1 <br />
