NRCS and UCAP staff provided training to municipal officials and other land managers in the watershed on non-point sources of pollution and the watershed planning process. A series of workshops on stormwater management issues attracted over 200 people. The Partnership helps growing communities protect their soil resources from erosion. Through the State Soil Conservation Committee s erosion and sediment control regulatory program, soil conservation district staffs review and certify proposed development plans for soil erosion control in District 11 before and after construction. The staff also review plans for stormwater control and issue permits.
Local inspectors check compliance to ensure natural resource conservation on development sites.
