The implementation of thermal pow er project may induce a large amount of soil erosion in both construction period and operation period. As one of the major measures for soil erosion control

botanic measures can play agreat role in vegetation rehabilitation

soil erosion control and benef it accomplishment of soil and water conservation facilities. This paper makes a brief analysis of const ruction project characterist ics and the factors which have great influences on allocation of botanic measures

including features of project locat ion

layout of thermal power project

biological characteristics of plant and so on. It also analyses botanic measures in the third stage of the project by Shangdu Power Generation Co.

Ltd. in Inner Mongolia. It is hoped that the study can afford some references for scient ific allocation of botanic measures

effect ive control of soil and w ater loss

improvement of environment and full demonst rat ion of the principle of ecological priority

comprehensive use and afforestation functions.
