(KAIR)--A Brown County native is named as the Coordinator for the Delaware River Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategy, commonly known as WRAPS.
A news release issued by the program says Ted Hinton has been hired for that role.
Hinton is a lifelong resident of Northeast Kansas, and grew up in Brown County. He earned an agribusiness degree from Kansas State University, and has worked for multiple agribusiness companies throughout Northeast Kansas. Hinton is a Certified Crop Advisor with what the release calls “extensive professional experience in agricultural production systems and technologies.”
