Soil and Water Resource Management Cost-Share

 

 

The Land and Water Conservation Department provides technical assistance and the cost-share incentives to protect the environment. This is achieved through a variety of conservation practices to improve nutrient management, control soil erosion, and prevent non-point sources of pollution.

 

Financial assistance is provided to landowners through an annual cost-share program. Conservation practices focus on reducing sediment and nutrient delivery to our waters. Funding from the cost-share program may reimburse landowners for up to 70% of the project costs. 

 

Some of the conservation practices eligible for cost-share include:

• Access Road or Cattle Crossing
• Manure Storage Systems or Manure Storage Closure
• Barnyard Runoff Control System
• Diversion and Waterways
• Grade Stabilization Structures
• Livestock Fencing
• Riparian Buffers
• Roof Runoff Systems
• Streambank and Shoreline Protection
• Well Decommissioning
• Wetland Restoration

-Not all of the programs and practices provided by the Land Conservation Department are listed. Please contact the department for additional information.
