Duval Soil and Water 2016 Plan of Operations

In December of 2015, Supervisors gathered in a conference room with agency leaders from the Florida Forest Service, Florida Department of Health in Duval County, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Duval Agricultural Extension Office, Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the Duval County Agricultural Council to create a Plan of Work for 2016. One thing was made very clear: collaboration with agency partners is an essential part of our success as a board. 

The major focus areas identified are:

1. Soils 
2. Conservation Education 
3. Partnerships 
4. Conservation Technical Assistance to Landowners 
5. Water Quality 
6. Flooding Concerns 
7. Water Conservation 
8. Wildfire Suppression

To learn more about the specific objectives, programs, projects or actions to be taken in each of these major focus areas, read our full Plan of Operations proposal here. We look forward to working through these items in 2016, and moving forward with continued action in 2017.
