In May of this year B&H was approached by Steven English of the Projects Department to help find a
product that would stabilize the limestone issues in the newly poured HPF ditches. We made contact with Soilworks a company that provides a soil stabilization product for B&H and got them to formulate a product that would work on limestone at various degree of angles in ditches. They sent me a sample of this product in late June and we applied it on July 3, 2017. I have inspected it every week since its application and the results are below.
This product could go a long way in remediation and stabilization of the limestone ditches in this plant in the future. Being that the product is nonhazardous to the environment and the water in the runoff ditches is a bonus.
I have been asked by several people just what this product is and thought I should put this report out to MI for circulation.
As always we at B&H appreciate your business and look forward to working with you,
