3 How Did We Get Here? Challenged with managing vegetation along nearly 50,000 lane miles throughout Ohio s diverse landscapes, ODOT sought to improve and expand its integrated vegetation management (IVM) program. ODOT s Office of Statewide Planning and Research with a Technical Advisory Committee developed a research project and solicited assistance through a request for proposal. Davey Resource Group, a division of The Davey Expert Company, was selected to complete the research project.
4 Project Description and Goal Implement New and Improved Vegetation Management Increase Efficiency, Effectiveness, and Reduce Costs Decrease the amount of noxious and problem weeds on the ROW Better safety for workers and traveling public Extend maintenance cycles for herbaceous and woody vegetation Make use of new and more effective chemical methods for vegetation management Utilize better mechanical methods for vegetation management Improve the abilities of workers to utilize equipment and herbicides properly
5 Phase I to Phase II Phase I Evaluate, Research, Assess, and Recommend IVM Methods August 2013 February 2014 Phase II Test Recommended IVM Methods May 2014 November 2016
6 Project Scope Preo TASK 1 Field Days and Technical Briefs TASK 2 Guide for Roadside IVM of Prohibited Noxious Weeds in Ohio TASK 3 Field Testing of Mechanical and Chemical Methods
7 Task 1. Field Days and Technical Briefs Conducted nine field days and presented technical briefs to share the project s goals, implementation, and successes with ODOT staff. Districts 5, 6, 10, 11 Districts 1, 7, 8, 9 Districts 2, 3, 4, 12 Agenda Meet at ODOT County Garage Davey Presentation of Project Visit Test Site and Review Test Fact Sheet Davey Overview of Test Goals and Implementation ODOT Staff Demonstrate Equipment and Provide Feedback
8 Field Days
9 Technical Briefs Created for each test and includes: Objective Recommended Method Standard Operating Procedure Goals Study Area Equipment, Materials, and Herbicides ODOT Fieldwork Time Evaluation Factors Measurements
