Natural Resources Block Grant(NRBG)
A Program that works to:– Streamline assistance and $$ to landowners– Coordinate activities of federal and state agencies
and local governments– Measure environmental benefits of our efforts

Bringing it together at the local level

Purpose of Local Water Planning
To develop and carry out water management plans at the county and watershed levels that protect and enhance surface water, groundwater and related land resources given local conditions, priorities and available resources.

Key concepts of local water planning
make local water management a high priority build local expertise and mgt. capacity identify future problems and prevent them take a comprehensive approach lead responsibility at the local level foster state and local partnerships

Why local water planning works
The state invests in it. The state benefits from it. Local government invests in it. Local managers, citizens and state agency
representatives participate in it. Local government commits to water resource
management.

Conclusion
In Minnesota we believe that a program that combines the elements of:– Consolidated granting– Local planning and implementation– Measured environmental outcomes
Can be used as a framework for granting money to state’s to fund a private lands conservation initiative
