Penobscot County Soil & Water Conservation District

Penobscot County Soil & Water Conservation District Making Conservation Work for You For Over 60 Years A board of supervisors carries out the District’s programs.

The Penobscot County Soil and Water Conservation District was formed on June 15, 1945, in accordance with Chapter 29, Revised Statutes 1944, of the Laws of the State of Maine. Two members are appointed by the Maine Association of Conservation Districts Advisory Council and three are elected by the residents of the District. The laws of the District are based on the principle that landowners and op

erators should take the initiative and responsibility in creating programs that will protect and improve resources that have a direct and immediate bearing on the people. We work with many partners to provide conservation assistance to the public. Our primary partner is the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Through this partnership, NRCS provides the District with a strong technical background. We also work with many other federal, state and local partners. The District reaches out to all local stakeholders in the community to determine priorities and set a course of action to solve natural resource problems. We provide local conservation leadership, teach the value of natural resources, encourage conservation efforts, and help plan and implement voluntary programs.
