OPINION

DAWKINS, Senior Judge.

The matter now before us is but one aspect of a rather lengthy condemnation proceeding wherein we have been called upon to determine the just compensation due for the United States' taking of certain private property for public use. On May 21, 1974, we disposed of a number of the claims involved by awarding various property owners $3,000 per acre for the taking of their property. 376 F.Supp. 1221
