CRITICAL AREAS
NEED TREATMENT
A critical area is one that is
bare or nearly bare of vegation:
an area where rain can fall and
water flow uninhibited to carry
out the destructive force of
erosion. A critical area is a
sediment-producing, pollution-
producing. ugly place. It can be a
roadside, a bare bank behind a
house, an overgrazed pasture, a
field needing a field border, a
dam that is slowly being washed
out by sheet erosion, or even
someone’s front yard.
No one profits from a critical
area. Soil is lost and with it. lime
and fertilizer as well as the time
and money spent to put these on
the land. Streams are polluted
with insecticides, herbicides,
fertilizers and sediment. Wildlife
habitat is destroyed and with it.
the natural beauty that we all
cherish so.
Farmers, developers, home-
owners. and anyone else owning
and using land may have critical
areas. Take a look around and if
you find a critical area, make
plans to get it covered with some
type of perennial vegetation.
There are many to choose from.

treating a critical area, contact
