The Sacramento Levee Revegetation Project required the seeding of three
different seed mixes at each of four different sites along the Sacramento River,
and an adjoining slough. In fact, one of the areas to be seeded was on an island accessible only by ferry, adding to the challenge of mobilizing for multiple sites.
Dutra Construction, the engineering contractor, was facing a fast approaching
deadline. To accommodate our customer’s problem, Mark Seeding Services
used three different hydroseeders, one for each site specific seed mix.
This allowed us to efficiently seed all four sites in one day!
