FCWP Agency Work

BLM Projects

Sand Draw Salt Cedar

Spraying was started on Sand Draw in July of 2005. Work continues as money and time permit. All spraying has been done with a back pack, as access is limited into the creek bottom. Approximately 3.3 miles have been treated to date. Around 1.5 miles of the length is sparsely populated with Salt Cedar.

This project gets checked annually. Initial treatment cost was approximately $13,300. The next treatment cost was approximately $1,300.00. The last treatment cost was approximately $700.00. This covered the entire project each time.
