This document represents the results of a unique concept called Project EXCEL. Several years ago, it was decided to establish a program that would allow Bureau of Land Management employees in Colorado to expand their jobs and visibility by giving them the time and resources needed to develop special projects. Project EXCEL is designed to provide the necessary time for the development of creative concepts in land management. EXCEL projects are chosen by a management committee that reviews all applications. When a project is selected for development, the employee is given a block of time and adequate funding to work on his/her idea. The final product is presented to the committee for approval. Many, if not all, Project EXCEL products are implemented for daily use. There have been numerous Projects EXCEL over the last several years, ranging from archaeological protection to wildlife management. This represents the first Project EXCEL to be published. I hope that the readers of this work will find it of use. Most importantly, it can be of value in understanding land management. By printing this work, it can be distributed throughout the Bureau. It can also be provided to the public in order to increase understanding as to how our past relates to the present.
