Water Conservation District Board, is requesting the assistance <br />and support of the Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners, with an application to <br />USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service, for the establishment of a Resource <br />Conservation and Development (RC&D) Area for the Counties of Cabarrus, Gaston, <br />Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Rowan, Stanly, and Union. A steering committee has been <br />created to develop and submit the application to USDA-NRCS by mid September 2002. <br />Currently, both the US House and Senate Agriculture Appropriations Committees <br />propose increasing funding for the RC&D Program for Fiscal Year .2003. By having a <br />current application on file with USDA-NRCS, we can compete for approval of the <br />proposed RC&D area, together .with the benefits of funding provided by this <br />development program. <br /> <br />The Cabarrus SWCD is requesting the sponsorship of the Cabarrus County Board of <br />County Commissioners on this application. If you should have any questions, please <br />give our office a call. <br /> <br />Sincerely <br /> <br />Myra Morrison <br />Chairman, Cabarrus Soil and Water Conservation District <br /> <br /> <br />
