Watershed Information Sharing Project (RCD-WISP)
Resource
Conservation Districts (RCDs), once known as Soil Conservation
Districts, are "special districts" of the state
of California, set up under California law to be locally
governed agencies with their own locally appointed, independent
boards of directors. Although RCDs are established locally
by the rules of a county's Local Agency Formation Committee
(LAFCO), and they often have close ties to county government,
they are not county government entities.
Resource
Conservation Districts are grassroots conservation agencies
working extensively with private landowners whose cooperation
is essential to solve watershed problems. RCDs are the
leading edge of locally-led watershed and land stewardship
efforts. The WISP shares what conservation districts
are doing in critical watersheds: their field projects,
educational outreach, technical assistance for landowners
and localenvironmental partnerships. See what's happening
in Santa Cruz.
