(KLZA)-- The Nemaha Natural Resources District Board of Directors discussed a Steamboat Trace Trail Improvement Plan with Steve Woerth when they met in October. 

Woerth reviewed the make-up of the Steamboat Trace volunteer committee and their plans to increase publicity of the trail and to improve some physical aspects associated with the trail. Some discussion was held concerning the groups desire to help open up the south end at Brownville.  

Nemaha NRD staff will investigate liability concerns with the NRD's insurance agent. 

The Board also discussed adding Day Use Improvements at Kirkman's Cove and Iron Horse Trail Lakes.  Visitors at Kirkman's Cove have been setting up tailgate type sites along the lake.  The possibility of developing formal tailgating areas to avoid cars parking on the grass was discussed.  Staff members will investigate areas that might work.
