Florida NRCS Announces Natural Resource Meeting

Clint Thompson Florida, USDA-NRCS

USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Florida has announced it will conduct a State Technical Committee meeting June 18, from 10-11:30 a.m. by web conference. This meeting will be open to the public, and NRCS will solicit recommendations for establishing program criteria and priorities for conservation in Florida.

Chaired by NRCS Florida State Conservationist Juan Hernandez, the committee is composed of individuals and groups from a variety of agricultural and natural resource interests. And while the State Technical Committee has no implementation or enforcement authority, USDA gives strong consideration to the Committee’s recommendations.

Individuals who require special accommodations or materials in an alternative format or language need to contact Nina Bhattacharyya, 352-338-9554 by June 11.

Participant information is included below and meeting material is located on the NRCS State Technical Committee webpage.
