Water Conservation; Water Erosion; Flooding and Prevention

Photograph of a watershed critical area. Severe gullying as created by salt water and oil field pollution. The soil was left bare and completely free of protective cover for several years allowing severe erosion to occur. The area will be fenced, tilled, mulched and seeded to tall wheatgrass and other salt tolerant grasses to attempt re-vegetation. OK-4081-9.
