Brown County Conservation District To Hold Cost-Share Signup
Brown County Conservation District is conducting a sign-up February 13 through February 29 to accept requests for state financial assistance to install enduring conservation practices.
The conservation district administers state cost-share programs locally to improve water quality and reduce soil erosion. Funding is provided by the Division of Conservation, Kansas Department of Agriculture through appropriation from the Kansas Water Plan Fund. Landowners with natural resource concerns on their property are encouraged to visit the Brown County Conservation District to discuss the possibility of receiving state financial assistance. Funding is provided through cost-share payments to landowners for traditional conservation practices designed to conserve soil and protect water resources. There is also cost share available to address abandoned well plugging, upgrading failing home waste systems and upgrade livestock waste facilities. The sign-up does not guarantee approval of cost-share financial assistance. Projects started or completed prior to being approved for funding are not eligible for these funds. For more information concerning state cost-programs and other available services, please contact Vicki Goertzen, District Manager, Brown County Conservation District, 785-742-3161 ext 3. ?
