Brief History of the Cass County Soil Conservation District

The Cass County Soil Conservation District is a legal subdivision of the State of North Dakota. Cass County was originally organized into four Soil Conservation Districts authorized by the North Dakota Soil Conservation District Law enacted in 1937 and as later amended.
• The districts were organized on these dates:
The Southeast Cass

District on February 24, 1944
The Rush River District on February 25, 1944
The Northwest Cass District on December 2, 1946
The Maple River District on December 4, 1946.
• Later the Maple River and Northwest Cass District were combined to form the West Cass District. The Southeast Cass and Rush River District were combined to form the East Cass District.
• The East and West Cass District later combined to form the present Cass County Soil Conservation District on October 22, 1974. The Cass County District included all the land area within Cass County. The District was organized by a vote of the people within the District and is managed by a board of five supervisors; of these five supervisors, three are elected and two are appointed. The Cass County SCD is responsible for carrying out programs of Soil and Water Conservation on all lands within the District boundaries. This provides a means for all interested parties to work together in the Conservation of Natural Resources.
