April
The burning at Baldwin was completed. The contractor worked over a three day period waiting on the best conditions for the spring burn. The quantity of understory fuel and cogongrass provided their own challenges. Even though there was some scorching we were pleased with the overall project. The roads have been worked adding ditches and water bars where necessary and gates were installed. The contract for cogongrass spraying was awarded to Progressive Solutions and will be completed this month.
Chopping was completed at Choccolocco, this completes the mechanical work. The site prep areas will resprout during the summer and herbicide will be ground and aerially applied late summer.
The mulchers completed work at Little River and moved back to Geneva. The weather is cooperating and we anticipate completing all the planned acres. Jones Vegetation Management will complete their work the beginning of May. Bach and Devos Forestry and Wildlife Services will continue to work through the month.
