Vegetation Death Mystery

This research will explore the cause of a zone of dead vegetation near a water quality pond along 1-70 and determine if it is related to activities by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and other agencies (U.S. Forest Service and Colorado Department of Natural Resources). Implementation depends on the findings, but potentially CDOT would partner with other resource agencies to minimize and mitigate vegetation impacts at this site and wherever similar situations are found.
