Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of soil incineration ash and yard trimmings compost to aid in reestablishment at the Drake Chemical Key Superfund site restoration project in Lockhaven, Pennsylvania. Profiles a greenhouse experiment designed to test the ash/trimmings mixture and describes the field implementation following the experiment. Reports that "amendment of soil incineration ash with yard trimmings compost proved to be highly successful and allowed the establishment of vigorous vegetative cover on previously phytotoxic and infertile material." |
