This federal Cooperative Agreement award, valued at $166,138.64, was issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to the Texas State Soil & Water Conservation Board (TSSWCB) on October 1, 2024. The grant is part of the Soil and Water Conservation Federal Grant Program (CFDA 10.902), which provides technical assistance and funding to support conservation efforts across agricultural, urban, and rural landscapes.
Under this award, TSSWCB will provide technical assistance to the Upper Elm - Red Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) in Texas to support local administration and management of flood control dams. This will involve services such as conducting dam assessments, developing supplemental watershed plans, and supporting the rehabilitation of flood control infrastructure. TSSWCB may also leverage sub-recipients like Texas A&M AgriLife Research and the Lower Colorado River Authority to execute these technical assistance activities. The project is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2026.
