[USCC] Runoff Studies

[KPowell@kdhe.state.ks.us]

Hello Compost World,

I am looking for information on any studies of runoff characteristics from
uncovered windrow composting.  I have found a couple from the Clean
Washington Center that do have numbers.  The problem is these studies were
conducted in a high rainfall area.  The rainfall in we will have is
approximately 25 inches per year.  Does anyone know of other studies that
might have been done in semi arid climates?

Thanks,
