Rhode Island NRCS Partnerships
The Conservation Partnerships
When the conservation pioneers created the Natural Resources Conservation Service, it put in place
a Federal, State, and local government partnership for delivering conservation assistance
to the landowners. They had concluded that the Federal agency could best deliver technical
and financial assistance to the landowners while State governments and local conservation
districts could more effectively connect with the individual landowners and set local
pursuits for action.
Rhode Island's
Conservation Districts, the Rhode
Island State Conservation Committee, and the Natural
Resources Conservation Service are collectively known as the Conservation Partnership.
Conservation Districts are subdivision of State government and were established
under State law to carry out programs for the conservation and wise
management of soil, water, and related resources.
Conservation district directors work
hand-in-hand with the Natural Resources Conservation Service to
deliver technical assistance to the people of Rhode Island. NRCS
provides technical services while the districts provide
representation from the local community and the leadership to set
priorities for conservation activities and develop new programs.
There are three
conservation districts in Rhode Island: Eastern Rhode Island Conservation
District; Northern Rhode Island Conservation District; and Southern Rhode
Island Conservation District. Each district is governed by a board of
directors which has locally elected and appointed citizens who volunteer their time
and leadership to the conservation effort.
