Abstract/Contents:Presents potential "step-by-step instructions that will get [one] the site-specific information that [one may] need for [an] NMP [nutrient management plan]." Suggests that a "computer"; "Internet Explorer 6 or 7"; "Adobe Acrobat Reader"; and "a color printer" is needed for a NMP. Provides the various steps, including "visit the Web Soil Survey"; "zoom in on [the] property"; "select the 'area of interest' or AOI"; and "find and print maps." Lists three potential problems one may encounter while producing an NMP, including "technical issues like the web soil survey doesn't run properly on [the] computer"; "golf course was built after aerial photographs were taken"; or "site grading and soil modification has changed soil properties, so the maps are not accurate."
