Katie-

After going back over the data comparing tree heights from 2015 to 2016 at the La Grange Phase I site, the data are right. The problem
was that I mislabeled the units of measure in the table from meters in 2015 to feet in 2016. I have attached a working table with
rounded average heights (all converted to feet) by species comparing the two years. The changes in height are appropriate for those
species. I have also attached a new, corrected Table 5.

Do I need to send a new CD with the corrected document?
