To the editor:
I strongly feel that no tower should be allowed on Bessie Belle Mountain. Allow one and more will follow as sure as we breathe. This is a conservation area, certainly, not agricultural.
The high point of Bessie Belle consists primarly (close to 100 percent) of Hazel Stony loam (moderately steep and steep phases). This soil classification ranges in depth from 2-14 inches, according to our county soil survey report, and is strewn with stones over the surface which, along with steepness, prevent the use of present day farm machinery on the mountain top.
It is not suited for crop production due to its shallowness, steepness and rockyness. Its best use is for forests, which occupy 95 to 1000 percent of this soil type
