The Utilities and Solid Waste Management Division Frederick County contracted Environmental Quality Resources, LLC to reforest a site adjacent to Interstate-70 and the Monacacy River in the suburbs of the City of Frederick, MD. It was an on-site mitigation for a new sewer line that was installed by Frederick County Public Works. Roughly 4,000 native plants were selected for the site that exhibited similar growth habits to those found in the area and provided watershed buffer and wildlife habitat to the existing ecosystem.
