The Latah Soil and Water Conservation District is an important
link in implementing sound resource conservation programs that are acceptable to, and for the benefit of, the residents of
Latah County and the State of Idaho. Farmers, ranchers, landowners, teachers, students, volunteers, and ordinary citizens
of Latah County all have something to contribute--and something to gain--from the Latah Soil and Water Conservation District. The Latah Soil and Water Conservation
District: - is goverened
by seven locally elected Supervisors who voluntarily serve without pay. They are elected through the same procedure as state legislators on general election day.
- is a non-regulatory subdivision of state government.
- develops local natural resource conservation programs with established
goals.
- receives limited funds from local
government and is eligible for match funds from the state.
- provides federal technical assistance to farmers and ranchers based on a partnership with the USDA Natural
Resources Conservation Service.
- is accountable
to Idaho's electorate, tax payers, and public; and provides reports and records to the Idaho Soil Conservation Commission.
