March 9 - March 27, 2009 is the sign-up period for the
floodplain easement component of the Emergency Watershed
Protection Program (EWP). Up to $145 million will be
available to eligible landowners nationwide as part of
President Obama’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act
of 2009 (Recovery Act). Funding will create jobs and
restore an estimated 60,000 acres of frequently flooded
land to its natural state. Public benefits include
increased flood protection, enhanced fish and wildlife
habitat, improved water quality, reduced future public
disaster assistance, reduced energy consumption, and
increased carbon sequestration. For eligibility
requirements visit the

The purpose and passion for conservation is shared among
many. It is shared between NRCS employees and partners
who help people help the land. And it is shared by the
landowners with whom we work. Our passion is manifested
through the benefits derived from stewardship of private
lands—benefits we all enjoy, such as cleaner water and
air, improved soils, and abundant wildlife habitat.
Learn about our stories, the stories of conservation
made possible through a shared purpose, a shared
passion, and a shared commitment to conservation. |
