NSCRCD is updating its 5-year Long Range Plan (LRP).  The District is not required to develop a long-range plan, but if it does, § 9413 of the California Public Resources Code establishes the functions of the LRP as follows:

1. Identification of resource issues within the district for purposes of local, state, and federal resource conservation planning.
2. Establishment of long-range district goals.
3. Provision of a framework for directors to identify priorities for annual district activities.
4. Provision of information to federal, state, and local governments and the public concerning district programs and goals.
5. Setting forth a basis for evaluating annual work plan achievements and allocating available funding to the district.
6. Involvement of other agencies and organizations in the district planning process in order to help ensure support in implementing district plans.

The purpose of this page is to share information to help inform the District's planning process and provide public transparency.
