RENO, May 7—U.S. Department of Agriculture’s NRCS Chief
Arlen Lancaster today announced that producers in three
Nevada watersheds will have two additional weeks to apply for
the Conservation Security Program in fiscal year 2008. The sign-up
now ends on May 30.
According to Curtis Tarver, acting state
conservationist for the NRCS in Nevada, Lancaster is extending the
sign-up as much as possible to allow producers adequate time to
gather natural resource information and complete the required
self-assessment and applicant interview. “This two-week extension
represents the fullest accommodation we can make and still deliver a
program this year,” said Tarver.
For more
information, please contact Rod
Dahl, program specialist, at (775) 857-8500 x 146.

The purpose and passion for conservation is shared among
many. It is shared between NRCS employees and partners who
help people help the land. And it is shared by the
landowners with whom we work. Our passion is manifested
through the benefits derived from stewardship of private
lands—benefits we all enjoy, such as cleaner water and air,
improved soils and abundant wildlife habitat.
Watch a 5-minute video about our nationwide stories of
conservation made possible through a shared purpose, passion
and commitment to conservation.
