Erosion Control Solutions That Last

Along the De Leon Street and Solary Canal corridor, Seminole County needed a retaining wall solution that could stabilize the channel edge, support adjacent infrastructure, and perform in a constrained drainage environment. The project team selected a Presto Geosystems GEOWEB® retaining wall system reinforced with Solmax Mirafi® 2XT geogrid to create a flexible, durable earth retention solution suited for conveyance channel conditions. GEOWEB retaining walls are designed to retain structural integrity in poor base conditions, support stormwater infiltration, conform to site contours, and install faster than traditional MSE block wall systems.

Along the MnDOT I-494 corridor, crews worked through active traffic, tight staging conditions, steep slopes, and environmentally sensitive terrain. The margin for error was essentially zero. Ero-Guard’s EG-2X-NN erosion control blanket was selected to perform under these exact conditions, holding firm through heavy storms, constant wind shear from passing vehicles, and challenging soil profiles. From day one, the system delivered immediate stabilization, supported rapid vegetation growth, and maintained full regulatory compliance without rework. Projects like this show what happens when erosion control is engineered for real-world conditions, not ideal ones.

What does it take to build a premier horse racing track in the Midwest — from the ground up? When Canterbury Park's Kevin Cole stepped into the turf manager role in 2019, he was tasked with maintaining a one-mile, 14-acre racing surface that would be seen on national broadcasts — without deep turf experience to lean on. What happened next is a story about more than products. It's about what's possible when a supplier shows up in the field, season after season, and becomes a true partner. Geoff Jordan, Managed Turf Specialist at Ramy Turf Products (a Nexterra company), did exactly that. The results speak for themselves — and they might surprise you. ‍

By combining hands-on expertise, careful planning, and coordinated teamwork, the irrigation pond at Bounty Club demonstrates how even the most challenging site conditions can be transformed into reliable, high-performance infrastructure.

High-performance green infrastructure can thrive in heavily used public spaces without sacrificing durability or function. The installation demonstrated that Nexterra’s advanced products, paired with technical expertise, ensured reinforced turf succeeded through precise base preparation, accurate panel placement, and alignment with the park’s long-term landscape objectives.
