-Note that the spreadsheet estimates soil loss from sheet and rill erosion only. It does not predict soil loss resulting from concentrated flow, slopes steeper than 33%, gully erosion or streambank erosion. If those areas exist on a site, they should be addressed through the use of [[https://danecountystormwatermanual.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=usle_guidance.pdf|Prescriptive Compliance]] should be used.+Note that the spreadsheet estimates soil loss from sheet and rill erosion only.
