On Dec. 21, 2016, the USDA announced that 88 high-impact projects across the country will receive $225 million in federal funding as part of the Natural Resources Conservation Service's Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). In addition, partners have proposed to contribute up to an additional $500 million to improve the nation's water quality, combat drought, enhance soil health, support wildlife habitat and protect agricultural viability.

By 2018, NRCS and our partners, including Indian tribes, nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, private industry, water districts, universities and many others, will have invested at least $2.4 billion through RCPP, which was created by the 2014 Farm Bill.
