2025 Local Work Group Survey: Help us, help YOU! Tell us your concerns and priorities as a member of the community!
The NRCS prides itself in its partnership with the Conservation Districts to provide locally relevant programs and assistance to producers. Local working groups solicit recommendations from you regarding local natural resource priorities and criteria for USDA conservation activities and programs. Convened by your local Conservation Districts, the local work group responsibilities include:
• Developing a conservation needs assessment identifying broad conservation goals to solve natural resource problems;
• Identifying priority resource concerns that can be addressed by USDA programs;
• Recommending USDA conservation program application and funding criteria, eligible practices, and payment rates.
We have PERC (Pressurized Exhaust Rodent Control) machines available to rent. If you are interested in renting one of these machines, please fill out this survey. For additional questions, reach out to hania.oleszak@bvlcd.com.

Our Goals
Water Quality and Quantity
Water is the lifeblood of the West. The quantity and quality of water is extremely important for the health of our communities and ecosystem. We support increased water storage, improved irrigation water management practices, and appropriate riparian habitats.
Sustainable Land Use
As population increases, natural and agricultural landscapes are continually manipulated. We engage with our community to provide landowners information and resources to steward their diverse properties.
Integrated Pest Management
Various pests can damage our fragile ecosystem and affect the quality of our land. We encourage and assist landowners in controlling noxious weeds. We advocate for pollinator protection and appropriate prairie dog management.
Forest Health and Watershed Management
In partnership with the National Association of Conservation Districts and the NRCS, we address resource concerns on forested private lands. We provide technical assistance to complete forest assessments, develop forest management plans, identify and secure a variety of funding sources, and implement projects.
Agricultural & Conservation Education
We want everyone - especially our children - to know where their food comes from. Agricultural and conservation education are the keystones of sustainability for tomorrow's leaders.
