Plans of Operation

In order for the SWCD to provide the best possible service to the tax payers, and to give direction to the staff, the Board and staff prepare "Work Plans"

These plans provide the staff with goals and guidance for the day to day operations of the SWCD.  They are also a requirement by the State agencies enabling the SWCD to receive grant funds that help administrative costs and to provide funding to our land users to install conservation practices.

The Lyon County Comprehensive Water Plan serves as the 5- year "Work Plan" for the SWCD.   Yearly plans are developed to achieve the longer range 5-year plan.

We welcome your comments on the 2010 Plan:
