Roots aze being found 7 <br />to 8 feet. We do not agree with the limitations that are present in all the reading. Lift A should <br />be a MINIMUM of 24 inches and Lift B should be whatever is left.. Most places say a total of 40 <br />inches other places say 48 inches. If the topsoil and subsoil is there, why is there a set figure? <br />We would like all of it returned regardless of depth. Some of our prime topsoil has already been <br />removed, so if it's there, we want it put back. <br />We do not agree with 2.04.9-27. Top soil A lift, 12 inches. Where did the 12 inches come <br />from? Everything on that page is 18 inches for non-prime and the for prime 12 inches. This is <br />not acceptable. - <br />These aze our main concerns and objections. Throughout the reading material, comments were <br />made that determination on farmlands were based on water availability etc. We are going to <br />stand firm on 1 SHARE will do 2 ACRES and we have proven this mathematically and <br />scientifically and we aze not going to give in on this matter. The water seems to .affect much of <br />these conclusions on other peoples property as well. We have not have time to read thoroughly <br />all of this material that took weeks to prepaze and we have only days to object. We may be <br />sending more information.
