you seem to know your stuff, but I agree with Dean: "Why?"
The eco-nazis (EPA) and tree huggers will not be satisfied until every stream in this country is crystal clear and the air is pure oxygen and nitrogen with ZERO pollutants.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame.
