Gully Control and Tile Drainage Project in Washington County
George Lord and Rolland of Ainsworth collaborate with the Soil Conservation Service and the Washington County district on a major gully control and tile drainage project. Nine thousand five hundred feet of tile extend to a large concrete dam, using 31.3 cubic yards of concrete to stabilize water outlets for a 515 acre watershed. Gullies are shaped, graded, and converted to grassed waterways across seven thousand lineal basins. Federal ACP cost-share covers about half the project, part of ongoing soil conservation efforts supervised by SCS technicians.
