Our Mission
“To promote the wise use of renewable natural resources within Stevens County”
What We Do
The Stevens County Conservation District is a non-regulatory agency. Our goal is to develop and implement programs to protect and conserve soil, water, farmland, rangeland, forests, wildlife and other renewable resources throughout the district. We provide technical and financial assistance to landowners within the district boundaries who have natural resource concerns or problems. We also provide educational assistance to schools and organizations within Stevens County.
Who Runs the District?
The District is governed by a board of five supervisors, who are all local residents. Three supervisors are elected by residents within the District and two are appointed by the State Conservation Commission. The board may also include an unlimited number of associate members. All of the members’ time and effort serving the District is on a volunteer basis.
How We are Funded
The District operates by obtaining grant funding from local, state, and federal sources. We receive no money from tax assessments.
Board Meetings
The board of supervisors generally meets the second Thursday of each month at 7:30 a.m. in the District office at 232 Williams Lake Rd in Colville. All meetings are open to the public.
