NRCS State Conservationist Astor Boozer and Public Relations Specialist Ivy Allen on Watershed Wednesday 2/16/11

Over the last month, I've posted quite a few NRCS offerings -- on-farm energy audits, oil spill prevention and organic farming assistance, conservation stewardship programs -- just to name a few. So I figured it was time for NRCS State Conservationist Astor Boozer to join me for Watershed Wednesday to talk about the USDA National Resource Conservation Service and its many New York Programs. Public Relations Specialist Ivy Allen and Assistant State Conservationist Dianna Power join us to fill in the details. NRCS is one of the Watershed Agricultural Council's key partners in protecting water quality in the New York City Watershed on both sides of the Hudson.

If you have question about NRCS or a comment on your experience with one of their programs, post it below or visit our FaceBook Page. Watershed Wednesday is sponsored by the Watershed Agricultural Council with funding from New York City Environmental Protection, U.S. Forest Service and the U.S.D.A.
