Organizing new methods for erosion and sedimenation monitoring and control

摘要

Historic and continuing land uses at the U.S.Army's Fort Carson and the Pinon Canyon Maneuver site (PCMS) may degrade training lands and cuse erosion and increased sediment loading of local waters. A team of experts from the U.S.Geological Survey, the USDA agricultural Research ervice's Southwest Watershed research Center, and two officies of the USDA Natural resources Conservation Service is identifying methods and projects that can be used by Mrmy land managers to evaluate the Army's potential contribution to the regional sediment pollution problem.
