WELCOME TO THE BLAINE SOIL CONSERVATION DISTRICT WEBSITE

Thank you everyone who supported BSCD through our Annual Tree Sale!

 

 

 

The Blaine Soil Conservation District is one of 51 Conservation Districts in Idaho.  Idaho Soil and Water Conservation Districts are political subdivisions of state government but are not state agencies.  Conservation Districts are charged with carrying out a program for the conservation, use and development of soil, water, and other natural resources.

 

Conservation Districts are the primary entities to provide assistance to private landowners and land users in the conservation, sustainment, improvement and enhancement of Idaho’s natural resources.  They are catalysts for coordinating and implementing conservation programs, channeling expertise from all levels of government into action at the local level. Programs are non-regulatory, science-based technical assistance, incentive–based financial programs and informational and educational programs at the local level.

 

It is the goal of the Blaine Soil Conservation District elected officials to set high standards for conservation of natural resources within the district. The district developed an action plan for meeting these needs. The Blaine SCD acknowledges that among their role’s as an elected board is the need to provide a service to the community, to assist in the economic stability of the area, to enhance the traditional way of life that is important to those we serve and to encourage the wise use of natural resources. The district further acknowledges the very important role our conservation partners play in the success of the Blaine SCD.

 

Blaine SCD main function is to make available technical, financial and educational resources, whatever their source, and focus or coordinate them so that they meet the needs of the local land manager with conservation of soil, water and related natural resources.
