The Washington County Soil and Water Conservation District is a Division of Arkansas government. We are housed in the USDA Service Center office in Fayetteville, AR. Our principal function is to provide support for county residents making use of USDA/Natural Resources Conservation Services programs. We also provide state required nutrient management plans (NMPs), we rent equipment, and we are the office where county farmers register their poultry operations each year.
Conservation districts are political subdivisions of the State of Arkansas. They are a creation of popular vote of resident landowners for the purpose of conserving our land and water resources as authorized by Act No. 197 of the Arkansas General Assembly of 1937; the Nation's first conservation district law.
Conservation districts are local governments at work and their specific responsibility is management of our soil and water resources. The idea behind their formation is to keep decision making on soil and water conservation matters at the local level. Each district is governed by a board of five directors who serve without pay. Two directors are appointed by the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission and three are elected by resident landowners.
