Plugging Abandoned Wells, Russell Derickson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Why seal abandoned wells? Abandoned wells pose a threat to the safety of animals and humans, especially small children. Unsealed abandoned wells may act like drains for runoff, allowing contaminated water to flow directly into an aquifer. Sealing abandoned wells by filling them with clay or cement prevents accidents and preserves the drinking water resource.

Septic System Maintenance, Russell Derickson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Most rural homes use a septic, on-site wastewater treatment system for household waste disposal. In a properly operating septic system, wastes are flushed into a septic tank where heavy solids are trapped and sink to the bottom. Lighter solids float on top of the water and form a scum layer. Anaerobic (without oxygen) bacteria break down wastes inside the septic tank. Water soluble compounds are carried out into a drain field trench where they are absorbed into the soil. Once in the soil absorption field, aerobic (with oxygen) bacteria continue to break down the effluent.

Harvesting And Ensiling High-Moisture Crops, G.R. Durland, Steve Pohl

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

An early fall and/or a short growing season can mean some hard decisions regarding the harvest, storage, and use of corn, sorghum, and soybean crops. The first damaging frost date will be the key to the harvest and storage method. It will be much easier if you plan for alternate methods prior to the frost date so that the crop can be harvested with the most efficient method for the respective operation.

Managing Lawns To Protect Water Quality: Watering, Fertilizing, And Applying Pesticides, Charles B. Johnson, James Gerwing, David F. Graper, James A. Wilson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Maintaining a quality lawn requires that you use intensive lawn care practices like watering, fertilizing, and/or applying pesticides. A number of best management practices (BMPs) provide safe-guards for preventing the contamination of surface water and groundwater supplies with lawn fertilizer and/or pesticides.

Estimating The Spatial Extent Of Bottom-Water Hypoxia And Habitat Degradation In A Shallow Estuary, Christopher P. Buzzelli, Richard A. Luettich Jr., Sean P. Powers, Charles H. Peterson, Jesse E. Mcninch, James L. Pinckney, Hans W. Paerl

Faculty Publications

Bottom-water hypoxia (≤ 2 mg 1^-1 dissolved oxygen [DO]) greatly modifies the benthic habitat of estuaries, depending upon spatial extent, duration, and frequency. Bottom-water hypoxia often develops under conditions of density stratification, which inhibits vertical mixing, and warm temperatures, which enhance biological oxygen demand. Long-term, mid-channel data from the Neuse River Estuary in North Carolina permitted evaluation of how stratification and temperature combined to affect DO concentrations at the bottom. Salinity stratification (DS) and water temperature (T) explained respectively 30 and 23% of the variance in bottom-water DO concentrations. The amount of salinity stratification required to induce bottom-water …

Emergency Management For Livestock-Waste Disposal, Charles B. Johnson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Livestock waste-storage structures that are currently full pose a management problem and an environmental pollution problem for produc¬ers, due to the possibility of a waste discharge. Fields that may normally be available for the proper disposal of stored livestock waste may be wet, flooded, or are otherwise unavailable for the disposal of stored waste.

Reducing Feedlot Mud Problems, Steve Pohl

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Muddy conditions decrease feed intake, slow aver¬age daily gain of cattle, increase problems with foot rot, and negatively affect feed efficiency. A feedlot with 4 to 8 inches of mud can decrease feed intake by 8 to 15%, slow daily gains by 14%, and reduce feed efficiency by 13%. Severe conditions, such as belly-deep mud, can reduce feed intake up to 30% and drop daily gain and reduce feed ef¬ficiency by up to 25%. These extreme wet conditions, however, do provide a benchmark to evaluate your present feedlot situation and to identify improvements that should be made. Recommended practices include …

Wind And Emergency Erosion Control, Bob Durland

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Unprotected soil is subject to wind erosion. Any occurrence that leaves the soil bare sets the stage for soil erosion. Unprotected fields result from the after harvest removal of plant residue for feed, by burning or by tillage operations. The best way to control wind and water erosion is to maintain a cover on the soil surface throughout the year. This can be done by establishing windbreaks, strip-cropping, or maintaining a cover of plant residue and/or growing crops on the entire soil surface.
