John Dulin of Minersburg builds 1.08 feet of bench type outlet terraces on his farm west of Farmersburg. Henry De Perdoff of the USDA Soil Conservation Service says the terraces are designed to save valuable water and reduce runoff. The project includes technical assistance and potential financial aid from the Agricultural Conservation Service and Conservation Service.
August work on an open ditch project west of Emmetsburg aims to control erosion at the Henningsen farm. Kenneth Henningson and Trub Campney will oversee the ditch that begins on the Venningsen farm and ends on the Campney farm. A controlled drop spillway will be installed to stabilize a gulley and protect a tile outlet. The ditch length and exact capacity are not fully stated in the readable text.
The existing ditch is inadequate due to flat grade and small capacity. A new ditch will provide sufficient capacity and remedy a shallow area unsuitable for tile outlets. Technical assistance comes from USDA Soil Conservation Service with financial aid from Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. Camporey and Henningsen, long-time cooperators with the Pato Alto Self Conservation District, have served as commissioners.
