Evaluation of the Palmiter Method for Erosion Control and Stream Management
註釋The Palmiter method is a sustainable approach for managing stream bank erosion issues that emphasizes the use of on-site woody materials to direct the stream's energy away from problematic erosion areas. The purpose of this research was to determine if the method could be adopted by ODOT. Researchers evaluated existing Palmiter installations at several locations in Ohio and analyzed the stages of the project life cycle to identify project planning, regulatory, construction, and maintenance requirements necessary for ODOT to carry out a Palmiter method project using in-house resources. The conclusion of this study is that the Palmiter method is feasible as a cost-effective and sustainable option for ODOT's erosion control and stream management project needs, and that Palmiter method projects can be implemented using in-house personnel with expert assistance and/or training on the method.
