Upcoming events @ the Newaygo Conservation District |
Local Work Group ResultsThe Newaygo County Conservation District (NCD) in partnership with the USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) hosted their Local Work Group (LWG) meeting on 9/12/24. This group is formed annually to gather input from constituents and conservation leaders throughout each county to determine natural resources issues and priorities.
With results from community members who participated in person and online, aquatic habitat was ranked as the most important resource concern. 17 resource concerns were ranked most to least important, with 17 being the most important and 1 being the least. These results will help shape NCD programs and priorities, as well as NRCS application ranking for various programs. |
