Discussed a harvester that may want to cut conservations.  Moratorium effects long wood, cord wood so foresters can’t transport wood out of the county.  Peter will contact a forester again and see if we can have something done on conservation land for a selective cut.  
Complete budget the same as last year.  
 Want get a price for 8 hours of brush cutting with a flail mower on the busch farm.  Now is the best time to do maintenance on the conservation properties.  We will contact Marden.
