~ III IIIIIIIIIIIII III <br />UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE <br />SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE <br />Monte Vista Field Office, P. 0. Box 990, Monte Vista, Colo. 81144 <br />March 9, 1979 <br />P1ard ATathias <br />253 ATorris <br />ldonte Vista, Colo. 81144 <br />SUBJECT: Protective Grass seedings on slopes around gravel pit, <br />Dear Sir, <br />In reference to our phone conversation on 3~8~79, establishment <br />of a protective grass cover on slopes around reservoirs or pits <br />in this area have proven ineffective. Law annual precipation <br />(6-7 inches) limits any grass seeding without supplemental mois- <br />ture. This problem is compounded on sloped embankments, which <br />have low water holding capacity, such as your gravel pit area. <br />The State Highway right of way between PTonte Vista & Del. Norte <br />was seeded after construction several years ado. An establishment <br />can be seen adjacent to the paving. This has occurred from added <br />moisture collected on the highway. The cut areas opposite the <br />highway remain without cover. Tack of moisture on these elopes <br />has rendered the seeding ineffective. _ <br />If seeding of pit slopes is demanded only drought resistent <br />~ speci.es should be used. It should be realized that a very high <br />mortality will occur, if grass establishment can be obtained, <br />Yours truly, , <br />~~' Jim Schaffer <br />CC: Jim Swartz <br />RECEIVED <br />~~ MAR 1 ~ 191 <br />RECL^:"!i~'11 iCN SEC i ION <br />Colo.
