Soil Conservation District Planned for Plymouth County
Interest grows in organizing a Plymouth County soil conservation district. About 60 Iowa counties already have districts offering surveys on erosion and flood control, demonstrations, and cooperative planning with U S Soil Conservation Service at no local cost. A local board governs district actions, petitions require 20 percent landowner support, public hearings occur, and a 65 percent favorable landowner vote finalizes formation. Contact the County Agent to register interest.
