Project Details

General Contractor: Henderson Construction Co. Inc

Before the opening of Fredericksburg’s new Publix Super Market, the General Contractor subbed out Finish Line Environmental to help establish vegetation in the parking lot area. On June 15th, Finish Line used the soil amendment product, ProGanics, in lieu of compost to raise the organic matter level that was right at 2%.  Instead of using straw or EC-2 erosion control blankets, Finish Line used 20 bales of EnviroBlend hydraulic mulch as the capping for this site.
