Richard H. Mider

Abstract: Current public concerns for protection of soil and water resources have resulted in enactment of laws requiring soil erosion abatement and repair of damages resulting from construction of electric transmission lines. Utility personnel can reduce restoration costs by altering construction operations to minimize disturbance. The expertise of the USDA Soil Conservation Service should be tapped for assistance in adopting principles of soil conservation to right-of-way restoration. NYSE&G's methods of restoration including equipment and materials utilized are described.
