Client: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), St. Paul District Location: Near Horace, ND Project Overview Red Bison Services (RBS) was awarded the native vegetation
Your restoration project deserves attention beyond the day planting ends. Establishing vegetation is one step; understanding how the site responds and what care it may need afterward is part of the longer view.
Red Bison Services provides restoration, vegetation management, and planting-site care. The focus is on connecting hands-on fieldwork with the future you are working toward for the site.
Restoration planting should reflect the site and the intended plant community. In wetland environments, water conditions and the characteristics of the surrounding landscape help determine what a restoration effort can achieve.
Keep the longer-term objective in view alongside the initial work. The purpose is not simply to plant an area, but to establish vegetation that belongs within the restoration plan and to recognize the role of continued care as the site develops.
Restoration & Planting services include:
Restoration can involve managing what is already growing as well as introducing new vegetation. Invasive plants can compete with native species and undermine restoration efforts, making their removal an important part of some projects.
Vegetation work should have a clear purpose within the overall scope. Identify what needs to remain, what needs to be addressed, and how the requested work supports the intended condition of the site.
Services can include:
Continued Care Beyond Planting
The condition of a site at installation is only a starting point. Monitoring provides a way to observe change, identify trends, and inform decisions about restoration and continued care.
For your project, that means giving follow-up requirements a clear place in the scope. Establish what needs to be maintained, what should be observed, and how long that attention is required rather than leaving those questions until the initial work is complete.
