Created a 5'W by 50'long fireline in well under ten minutes.
The acronym H_M_Osm stands for a water based process known as
Hydro_Mechanical_Obliteration. The purpose of H_M_Osm is to reduce, eliminate, or
abate; noxious, invasive, and flammable weeds and grasses using a non-chemical
process previously unavailable anywhere.
Today vegetation control and fire prevention is a global problem for a whole host of
reasons. Wildland grass fires are a major issue for the western states. Grass fires are
the fuses to the bomb, igniting brush land with high fuel loads that then explode into
uncontrolled fires.
Currently, Vegetation managers and property owners use a multi-step process for
controlling weeds. In the past, weed managers and landowners have mostly sprayed
herbicides. Why in most cases are herbicides used before mowing? The answer
relates to the fact that mowers and strimmers will clog and become ineffective when
cutting green grass materials.
Hence the use of herbicides prior is to kill the grasses in order to dry out the grasses
before cutting. This "brown and cut" procedure is a required process function of
integrated vegetation management that is needed to obtain efficiency and economies of
scale.
Then subsequent to the current process of spraying herbicides and performing the
required mowing process, the current process is followed by collection and disposal of
the debris from the process.
The current mechanisms are a costly three-step process that is often ineffective, or
worse, fails to meet the objectives of the involved communities and districts.
Now using our H_M_O sm process, land stewardship will be done more
efficiently than ever possible before with fewer steps. The overall results are obtained
using high-pressure water that acts like a scythe to cut and mulch grasses. The
mulched product does not require removal and enriches the soil from which the
grasses came. H_M_O sm is a novel use of high-pressure water for controlling weeds and
blight from public owned lands and right of ways. Our process eliminates chemical
usage, biomass haul out, and the use of engine driven cutters that are often the root cause of grassfires.
A beneficial by-product of H_M_O sm? Improving Soil, Reducing Waste, and eliminating
exposure to herbicides and other chemicals.
Mr. Naresh Duggal, the IPM Manager for Santa Clara County, explains the technology
as a "Paradigm shift"...
Using our patented and pending process for annual hazardous vegetation growth
control eliminates toxic exposure for employees and the public, thereby mitigating the
overall associated liability with former integrated programs that rely on regulated
product use.
Additionally, utilization of the H_M_O sm process is an invaluable tool for "cutting line" in
creating "safety zones" and "anchor points". A single operator is capable of clearing
approximately 10,000 square feet in under an hour! When compared to today's manual
"line cutting" methodologies, our process increases the effectiveness and safety of any
fire crew!
H_M_O sm is a process to solve the grass fire problems within any interface, thereby
helping to achieve the important objectives of three separate programs; fire prevention,
resource protection and land stewardship.
It is a pleasure bringing this matter to your attention. Please feel free to call anytime to
make an appointment to implement the benefits of H_M_O sm. Thank you.
