The steep slopes and the severe weather at the site cause rapid erosion of exposed soils and would provide enough area to test several products. However, the severe conditions limited the plant cover established during the first growing season, so the slopes were re-seeded and fertilized several times during subsequent years. Because the re-seeding and additional fertilization were done using standard materials and methods, no data was available on the performance of the mulches, tackifiers, and germination enhancers.
