Says Stock Dams
Must Be Approved

All stock-water dams built in
Big Horn county under the AAA
range conservation program
must be approved by the state
Agricultural Conservation COM
mittee before construction is be-
gun, according to George Miller,
county agricultural conservation
committee chairman.
The couny committee must
also approve the dams, Mr.. Mil
Ter said.
This year all stock-water
dams must be at least 10 feet
high and hold at least seven
feet of water. The distance from
the top of the dam to the bot
tom of the spillway, ordinarily
called the "freeboard" must be
at least three feet.
Stockmen planning to build
dams must locate them on the
ranch so that better livestock
distribution and range utiliza-
ton will result. The state COM
mittee will not approve stock
water developments located at
ranch headquarters or used for
irrigation.
