Governor Gray Davis “I am very pleased that DRiWATER will be able to bring its important environmental technology to water-starved regions. California continues to be a leader in environmental technology, and DRiWATER, Inc., is bringing the right solutions at the right time to the region. The problem of water scarcity has plagued the Middle East for centuries. I am glad that a California company is having a profound impact on providing jobs, and contributing a cooperative, peaceful, and practical technology to an age-old problem." Northwestern Resources Phil Letbetter - Reclamation Specialist Jewett, TX “I believe that 95% of our trees were saved by using DRiWATER and that none would have survived had we not applied DRiWATER during these extreme drought years.”Walsh Vineyard Management Brian Shepard - Vice President & General Manager Sonoma, CA “After using DRiWATER on our replants for a couple of years we found ourselves in a bind with thirty-three thousand vines having to go in the ground without adequate irrigation. With confidence we decided to use DRiWATER. After the superior growth rates on such a high volume planting we have decided to budget DRiWATER in for all our replants each year.” New Mexico Energy, Minerals & Natural Resources Department John A. Kretzmann - P.E., Environmental Engineer, Abandoned Mine Land Bureau Santa Fe, NM “I am happy with the results of using DRiWATER and will be specifying it in our next two projects, the Madrid gob reclamation project and the Cochiti Mine safeguard project.” Metamorphosis Erosion Control, Inc. David Franklin - CPESC Vice President Metamorphosis has used DRiWATER for about 5 years with great results. One example is the Redwood Estates project in Santa Cruz. This roadside repair and revegetation took longer than expected. In order to complete the project and close it out, Metamorphosis requested a change order to allow the use of DRiWATER on the native plants after installation. This was around May and when we came back 3 months later to add a recharge of DRiWATER, over 95% of the plantings had survived. We thought some of the mortality was due to pestilence and not a lack of water. The recharge application got the plants through to Fall rains and they were on their own after that. We have recommended and used DRiWATER a number of times since then with similar results. Molycorp, Inc. Ann Wagner - Environmental Coordinator Questa, NM “Pleasantly surprised!” She reported finding a “ …98% success rate on the one-gallon Ponderosa Pines planted with DRiWATER as opposed to 83% on those without DRiWATER.” With the Blue Spruce transplanted from D 40 containers she found an even more significant difference. “The spruce planted with DRiWATER had a 98% success while those planted without DRiWATER rated at 71%.” Walnut Creek Mining Company Roger Burton - Mine Manager Bremond, TX “DRiWATER has helped our reclamation trees survive one of the hottest and driest years in Texas history.” City of Santa Rosa Dan Neff - Parks Superintendent Santa Rosa, CA “We use DRiWATER in areas where irrigation is not available or where conventional irrigation would compromise the integrity of a slope.” Rancho Properties John Neeb - Owner Mission Viejo, CA “We would like to thank you for introducing your product to us. We are currently using DRiWATER on projects in San Clemente and San Diego. We are very pleased with the outcome. The plants we have used with DRiWATER are healthy and growing vigorously. Using DRiWATER also helps avoid erosion problems. We will be calling you again for our next project.” Mayacamas Vineyards Bob Travers - Owner Napa, CA “Watering scattered replacement vines is no longer a problem since we started using DRiWATER. When asked how our water is these days we say, “the same as our wine, very dry.” Texas Department Of Transportation - Amarillo District Office Chris Chambers - Landscape Architect Amarillo, TX “DRiWATER does exactly what it was meant to do. It delivers water during the establishment period. DRiWATER makes plantings possible that would normally have to be truck watered. DRiWATER is great for any replant situation. Once placed next to the plant you can be sure that your plants are receiving the moisture they need.” TestimonialsPlantscape & Commercial Silk Mark Kiel, Production Manager Eden Prairie, MN “With the use of DRiWATER, we only need to service the plants every 45 days, and the weight factor is reduced by almost 50%. By using DRiWATER we made our customers very happy and it gave us a new “tool” which will enable us to put plants in areas where we could not before.” Environmental Care Scott Ariniega Riverside, CA “We had a difficult time watering some hanging pothos at our Olive Garden account. They were on a high shelf near air conditioning ducts. We used one 9 ounce DRiWATER Gel Pac per 6” pothos. After 3 weeks there was no wilting and not one yellow leaf. We save 1 _ hour per week, per account, using DRiWATER. We can take on an additional account now without any increase in our labor cost.”Foliage Design Systems Ken Bauder Chicago, IL “DRiWATER seems to be a real breakthrough in poinsettia maintenance! I’ve had points for three weeks and have only done minor trimming. Color holds well, especially when the points are in lit positions. What impresses me most is that there’s no invasive watering spouts, which cause breakage.”Plant Works Frank Hornstein Chantilly, VA “We do such a large Christmas business and labor is our most scarce resource during that period. Having to water poinsettias only once is a great savings in time, labor and sanity.”Greenwood Plants Nancy McGinnis Rochester, MN “We have learned a lot using DRiWATER and are convinced that it is helping with our color rotation programs. I am also using it to teach our local community college interior plantscaping class. The rest of the faculty is amazed by our results from using it. Thank you!” |
