2009 Agricultural Water Enhancement ProgramThe Agricultural Water Enhancement Program (AWEP) is a voluntary conservation program under the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). AWEP provides financial and technical assistance to farmers and ranchers to assist them in applying agricultural water enhancement activities that conserve ground and surface water and improve water quality on agricultural lands. NRCS may carry out AWEP by entering into contracts with agricultural producers who apply directly or through partnership agreements with entities that apply on behalf of agricultural producers. The AWEP Partner Application for fiscal year 2009 must be postmarked and submitted to the NRCS Chief no later than March 2, 2009, for consideration in a national evaluation process. Complete information is available on the national NRCS AWEP Web page below. For More InformationFor more information and updates about AWEP, also please refer to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Web site or contact one of the Montana NRCS personnel listed below.
