Soil & Water - CCAP Advisory Committee
The Community Conservation Assistance Program Advisory Committee (CAC) provides technical and programmatic recommendations to the Commission on best management practices (BMPs) and average costs for CCAP. The CAC meets four times annually.
District involvement and participation are very important to the CAC, and the CAC often solicits input by the districts on various issues, including types of BMPs, BMP specifications, and average costs. Supervisors, district employees, and partnership staff have a standing invitation to attend CAC meetings and participate in the discussions. If you have any issues you would like the committee to address or would like to be included for the next meeting, please contact the Conservation Program Coordinator.
Voting members of the CAC are outlined in General Statute 106-860 (d).
