<br />MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS: Securing of mats after high water Is about the only required <br />ma J ntenance. <br /> <br />ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT: In this technique old tires are lashed together with wire or <br />non-brodegradable rope and placed as a mat on the bank. Vegetation Is planted or allowed <br />to establish over the tires. Initially, the tke mattress Is an eyesore, but as <br />vegetation Is establ fshed, the area develops a more natural appearance. The underwater <br />portion of the tires may provide some aquatic habitat and the above water vegetation would <br />become wildlife habitat. The tires may prove difficult to walk on, which may restrict <br />access slightly. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />26 <br />
