call him early, and people call him
often, from the Montgomery
County Planning Commission
developing a new park, to township
engineers, fanners, developers,
and homeowners.
Ed tries to help everyone in spite
of many other duties and
responsibilities. According to Bill
Steuteville, a co-worker, “Ed
should leam to say no more often.
Some problems could be passed to
others, but he likes to help people if
he can.” The people Ed likes most
are farmers. The biggest part of
his job is advising farmers on
controlling erosion, filling gullies,
and draining wet fields. Often it is
hard convincing farmery that
conservation is necessary. But if
Brzostek can save a farmer money

usually listen.
“Farmers can save hundreds of
dollars by building terraces and
waterways themselves with their
own equipment. We can show them
how.” claims Brzostek. And far
mers have listened, by doing more
conservation work this year than
ever before, according to Mon
tgomery County records.
Whether he is helping a farmer
in the field, or addressing a
developer’s erosion problems over
the phone, Ed likes his work.
But he doesn’t let work keep him
from fishing or spending time with
his family; Rita, his wife, Jennifer
and Eddie Jr., his children, which
are Ed’s favorite pastimes.
Most people would agree that
Ed’s work is “Outstanding Ser
vice”. He and his staff want to help
people with soil conservation
problems or questions. You can
call them at 489-6071, but
remember to call early.
