Soil Health Assessment

On graded and compacted ground, soil condition can limit establishment of native perennial vegetation.

Verdelora samples and interprets physical, chemical, and biological soil properties. Physical and chemical measures include texture, bulk density, compaction, pH, salinity, nutrient status, and organic matter. The soil biological community is added where the design depends on it.

Soil results set the specification.

We specify compaction relief, amendment, topsoil salvage and replacement during construction, and species selection from measured soil condition. Preconstruction sampling sets the baseline. Operational-phase sampling at the same fixed locations measures change against it.
