A Day in the Field to Identify Invasive Species

This week, Marketing Intern Eric Poublon had the opportunity to shadow Paul O’Hanlon, one of TFMoran’s Certified Erosion, Sediment and StormWater Inspectors (CESSWI), out in the field at an upcoming project in Derry, NH.

Paul showed Eric how to read and reference the Wetlands Impact Plan to locate invasive and native species on site along with marking down ones that may have been missed. They identified four invasives and only one native, Burning Bush, Japanese Barberry, Japanese Knotweed, Oriental Bittersweet and Common Pokeweed, respectively.

Eric had a great time getting to see one of many tasks Paul does out in the field and learn a little about the process that goes into preparation for a project.
