Explanation. 

The following drafts are updates of an existing Maryland standard:

• Cover Crop (Code 340) – No significant changes were made to the narrative portion of the standard. Please note that the planting dates for winter annuals in Table 1 has been revised to be more consistent with dates used for comparable planting zones in Pennsylvania and Virginia.

An electronic copy of each standard will be available for downloading from the eFOTG through my.NRCS or http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/efotg/.  Select Maryland and select a county. The draft standards will be displayed in the main window under "What's Recently Changed" and "Draft eFOTG."

Please return your comments on the draft standard to me by July 20, 2009. You may respond by e-mail or by regular mail. To the extent possible, I ask that you consolidate all comments from your office.
