What is the State Technical Committee?
The State Technical Committee (STC) provides advice on a wide variety of
policy issues to Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Although State Technical Committees have no
implementation or enforcement authority, USDA gives strong consideration to the
Committee's recommendations.
What do they do?
Each State Technical Committee recommends criteria and guidelines for
agricultural producers regarding new conservation practices and systems not
already described in field office technical guide.
When do they meet?
The STC usually meets quarterly or as needed. The schedule may change as
determined by the State Conservationist. The meetings originate from various
locations around the state. Efforts are underway to create greater accessibility
and opportunities to participate in the STC meeting by utilizing net meeting
software that allows participants to log on from their home or office computer,
or attend at a designated NRCS field office where the meeting will be monitored.
This system allows for two way audio communications, so questions can be asked
and comments made by phone from any location logged into the net meeting bridge.
Meeting dates:
- January 24, 2012
- May 15, 2012
- September 25, 2012
