M-1999-011 / <br />Dear Sir: <br />The High Plains Conservation District initiated by your release request consideration <br />letter, requested NRCS make a field visit to the Craig Pit. <br />On April 27, 2004, NRCS found that the pit area and haul road does not have an <br />establish grass cover on them at this date in time. The south bank that was shaped of <br />the pit area has very little grass cover or weed cover on it, but does not show any active <br />erosion at this time. The level bottom area of the pit has sweet clover cover coming on <br />about 2/3's of the area. The east 1/3 of the pit area showed very little grass or any <br />vegetation on it. The level bottom of the pit area does not show any active erosion now, <br />but if vegetative cover does not establish, water and wind erosion problems may arise. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at, (719)743-2408 ext. 101. <br />Thank you, <br />~e=lam <br />Trisha Kischefsky <br />District Manager <br />CONSERVATION -DEVELOPMENT -SELF-GOVERNMENT <br />
