FHWA Publishes Guides for Roadside Revegetation Using Native Plants

The Federal Highway Administration has issued two publications that explore an integrated approach to establishing native plants along roadsides and other areas disturbed by modifications to existing roads. The first document, Roadside Revegetation: An Integrated Approach to Establishing Native Plants, is a manual that guides readers through a four-step process of revegetation, including initiation, planning, implementation, and monitoring. The second publication, A Manager’s Guide to Roadside Revegetation Using Native Plants, is designed to help project managers incorporate an integrated approach to revegetation and addresses issues such as scheduling, budgeting, communication, and quality assurance. Both publications are available on the FHWA Western Federal Lands Highway Division’s website. (4-24-08)
