The Sutter County Resource Conservation District (SCRCD) is a legally constituted unit of State Government, organized under provisions of Division 9 of the Public Resources Code, State of California, pages 9,001 - 10,000. The Code states, “It is the intent of the Legislature to encourage districts to facilitate cooperation among agencies to address resource issues of local concern.” The Code also provides that RCDs may enter into contracts with the State of California, the United States, any county, city, other RCD, and/or other public districts and provide services at a cost reasonably borne by the RCD.
SCRCD's Board of Directors are appointed by the Sutter County Board of Supervisors to four year terms. Directors are chosen for their knowledge of local economic, social, and environmental issues and challenges. In partnership with the United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), SCRCD links local farmers and ranchers to grants and cost share programs intended to address natural resource concerns and help maintain a strong agricultural economy in the region.
SCRCD also engages in grant-funded projects and fee for service contracts with partners and clients at all levels of government throughout the Sacramento Valley.
