CEFTS Honors Recipients and a Forest Management Project at Itasca Community College

Below is a picture from a class project to replace a non-functioning culvert on a forest road on our campus woodlot.  As part of our Forest Mgmt and Planning course, each year we do coursework and field work on forest roads.  The last couple of years we’ve been working to restore natural drainage patterns on the forest by replacing culverts that were originally installed in the 1940’s and 1950’s when the campus road system was established. Most of these original culverts are no longer functioning.  The class established elevation for restoration of the drainage, and in the photo is replacing the plugged and crushed culvert.  Apologies for the photo quality.
