Prairie Restoration Environmental Assessment
Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site (BEOL) proposes to restore an 8 acre site immediately surrounding the reconstructed fort. Eight acres of land adjacent to the fort were severely compacted during reconstruction of the fort in 1976 and impacted following the removal of a parking lot once located outside the fort. Current management of the site includes mowing and spraying herbicides to treat weeds mainly the invasive non-native plant kochia. The main goal of this project is to completely restore lands targeted for restoration because of previous disturbance associated with fort reconstruction, parking lot remnants and 20th century agricultural activities.
