Individual Session: Dynamic Specifications for Dynamic Native Landscapes
Friday, February 11, noon – 3:30 p.m. CST
Many ecology-based field techniques run counter to traditional practices and are unfamiliar even to experienced contractors. Consequently, highly precise specifications are crucial. Our presenters will cover the design and documentation of field procedures unique to ecological design such as phased planting, meadow and grassland establishment, specialized equipment, invasive weed control, slope stabilization (including seeding with compost blankets), and managing vegetative change over time. They will also discuss organizational formats that balance the need for both detail and usability, and how to customize specifications for both public and private projects.
Speaker: Rebecca Kagle, associate ASLA, Andrew Korzon, PLA & Tara Mitchell
