Notice of Proposed Change to the Natural Resources Conservation Service's National Handbook of Conservation Practices

Résumé

Notice is hereby given of the intention of NRCS to issue a series of new or revised conservation practice standards in its National Handbook of Conservation Practices. These standards include ``Contour Buffer Strips'', ``Cross Wind Trap Strips'', ``Dry Hydrant'', ``Field Border'', ``Filter Strip'', ``Irrigation Water Management'', ``Residue Management, Mulch Till'', ``Residue Management, No Till and Strip Till'' ``Waste Utilization''. NRCS State Conservationist's who choose to adopt these practices for use within their state will incorporate them into Section IV of their Field Office Technical Guide (FOTG). These practices may be used in conservation systems that treat highly erodible land or on land determined to be wetland.
