Comment:
Placed around 370 yards of gravel on the 'lane' or 'road' that goes from the KBS FSC farm to the GLBRC intensive site. Started on Wednesday December 13, 2017 and finished Thursday December 14, 2017. Purpose for more gravel: To help stabilize the road after rain or any moisture. Road would become sticky and muddy after rainfall or moisture. Gravel was added to help equipment, trucks, and other equipment have better access to the GLBRC plots. Having the new road will allow staff to stay off 40th St. (busy road for farm and lab equipment). Source of gravel: Carpenter Gravel, Inc. Delton, MI (269) 721-9989 Type of gravel: 22A stabilized road gravel. Carpenter Gravel delivered the gravel in 10 yards trucks (two of them), they spread the gravel out as best as they could coming out of the tailgate of the trucks. We moved/leveled the gravel around with the loader on the JD 7420b tractor.
