Summary of Request

The Mendocino County Resource Conservation District (MCRCD) is a non-regulatory, local agency supporting voluntary stewardship of natural resources, serving landowners since 1945. MCRCD is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of local landowners who meet the third Tuesday of every month. MCRCD staff collaborate with private and public landowners to address natural resource concerns on their properties. Utilizing Best Management Practices, MCRCD develops projects and pursues funding to assist landowners with meeting conservation objectives and/or regulatory compliance. MCRCD generates more than 95% of its budget from highly competitive grants and works closely with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service on wild and working landscapes in areas of Forestry and Soil Health, Water Conservation, and Watershed Restoration. The County contracts with the MCRCD for services on an annual basis, currently through groundwater monitoring and storm water pollution prevention programs. Other programs and services of the MCRCD include “outreach & education”, “planning & assessment”, “biological surveys & services”, and “project management and implementation”. Deborah Edelman, Project Manager, will provide the Board of Supervisors with an informational presentation on MCRCD activities supported by the 2017/18 Fiscal Year contract. MCRCD’s 2017-2018 Annual Summary is included as supplemental material.
