the vegetation associated with these ditches, while the dense cover of graminoid and <br />occasional forb species protect the banks of the ditches from erosion. A total of 9 ponds occur <br />within the study area. Ponds are maintained to catch irrigation and storm runoff water for <br />livestock use. All operators stated that the ponds were not associated with any irrigation <br />systems or water storage for that purpose. The vegetation around these ponds is similar to <br />that found in the swale type and along the irrigation ditches. <br />Soil map units 98A, 98D, 98E, 98F and 98G have a sagebrush - grassland potential native plant <br />community characterized by the Semidesert Loam Range Site. This Range site is described in <br />the 1987 study within this document. <br />Soil Map units 98C, 98B, and 98H have a pinyon - juniper woodland potential native plant <br />community characterized by the Pinyon- Juniper Woodland Site Description. This Range site is <br />described in the 1987 study within this document. <br />(Revised July 2010) 2.04.10 -83 <br />
