New England Environmental, Inc.(NEE)
has emerged as experts in the field of soft engineering using traditional
and non-traditional soil bioengineering techniques. Bioengineering, also known as “soft engineering” is a technique which uses native plant materials and erosion control products to stabilize eroding slopes, waterways, and banks. These techniques are used as an alternative to stone rip-rap, stone gabion baskets, concrete, or other “hard” engineering techniques. In many cases bioengineering can be used as a more natural and less invasive method for soil stabilization. We have successfully used bioengineering techniques to stabilize steep upland slopes; riverbanks on both large and small rivers; drainage channels; lake and pond shores; irrigation ponds and coastal banks. NEE uses an understanding of:
to develop appropriate bioengineering designs for a given site. Our work has received several awards and national recognition for innovative design using bioengineering techniques. Click here for more information or to request a proposal. |
