Slope Condition <br /> The undisturbed slope has a substantial ground cover, with penn sedge and day <br /> lilies being the two dominant species. We did not detect any substantial soil <br /> erosion or large areas of exposed soil. The dominant shrub species included <br /> smooth sumac, grey dogwood, and buckthorn. Green ash and bur oak were <br /> noted along this slope area (Picture#2). <br /> Restoration Summary (disturbed slope) <br /> Existing Conditions <br /> Currently, there is an approximately 300 SF slope area with patches of exposed <br /> soil. The average slope angle is 2:1. The dominant soil type is a sandy loam. <br /> The root structures of shrubs and small trees are scattered in this slope area <br /> (Picture#3). There was no evidence of concentrated runoff from impervious <br /> surfaces on this area. <br /> Water Management and Site Design <br /> The plan below can be used to revegetate the exposed slope area. It should be <br /> understood that any concentrated water flow on the slope or substantial seepage <br /> may cause slope failure. It is paramount that proper water management be <br /> implemented to prevent any substantial soil erosion. Because Natural Shore <br /> Technologies, Inc. is not involved with the site design, water management, or <br /> revegetation installation, we cannot be held liable for any aspect of a slope <br /> failure. <br />
