      <abstract>These data show land use for the Belt-Stockett-Sand Coulee area southeast of Great Falls, Montana. The data were interpreted on 1:24,000 scale USGS orthophoto quadrangles in 1995, field checked, and digitized by hand on a digitizing table from the paper quadrangles. One of the land use types is Conservation Reserve Program lands. These lands were digitized from a map provided by the Cascade county office of the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service. The data were created by Mike Cannon of the U.S. Geological Survey's Montana office.</abstract>
      <purpose>These data were produced to support mine reclamation efforts of the Reclamation Division of the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.</purpose>
