The Water Quality Program provides cost share to landowners to implement best management practices. These one-time funds will be used to catch-up projects that have been delayed due to emphasis on the Eastern Snake Plain Mitigation and will be used in conjunction with low interest loans provided by the Resource Conservation and Rangeland Development Fund.
