Restoring land to its original state is the last part of a job and reaching jobsites in need of reclamation has a reputation of being problematic. However, this important step is made easy with crawler carriers that are customized with hydro-seeders. Due to the flotation from its rubber tracks, a crawler carrier will leave a minimal footprint, while the hydroseeder attachment allows users to seed, fertilize and mulch in one simple process.
'The hydro-seeder allows the environmental crew to follow up the pipe crew and spray the seed mix for erosion control with very little foot print and less disturbance on the surrounding soil,' says Barry Casto, general manager of Shafer Equipment.' The crews can finish the job with little evidence they were ever there working.'
With these five core capabilities, crawler carriers offer pipeline contractors a wide range of options and versatility. From hauling people and supplies to supporting pipeline construction tasks, these tracked prime movers can be outfitted with just the right tool for the job.
The combination of a low ground pressure rating, rubber tracks and heavy pay-load allows crawler carriers to perform a multitude of rugged duties while maintaining traction on the various ground conditions found on pipeline rights of way. Manufacturers offer a wide range of models and custom options to suit whatever the project demands.
