About Us

   
             
   

The Haskell County Conservation District was certified by the Kansas State Conservation Commission in 1948.
 

   
    In Kansas, conservation districts are self-governed agencies. The governing body of a conservation district consists of five elected district supervisors. A district supervisor has a unique niche among agencies managing Kansas' natural resources. Supervisors serve as grassroots representatives of landowners and the general public in their community, providing leadership and direction of volunteer cooperation in natural resource conservation programs.
 
   
    Supervisors receive no compensation for services, but are entitled to travel expenses incurred in the discharge of their duties. Supervisors of the conservation district meet once a month and review the business of the office and make the conservation decisions for the county with the technical advise of the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The board members donate many hours of their time every month to activities to promote conservation in their county.
 
   
    Employees are hired by the board to run the day-to-day business of the Conservation District. Haskell County Conservation District employs a District Manager. Some county conservation districts hire secretaries, clerks, technicians, education staff, etc.
