SOL CONSERVATION NEWS By JAMES H. GRIFFIN. Soil Conwrattoalst What is a watershed? Whatj does the small watershed act (I’.L. 566) mean to Chowan Coun ty' people? How can people on a watershed apply for assistance in solving their major problems?! How much will it cost? These and many other questions' will' be answered at a publjc meeting to be held Friday night, J September 12, at the Court House in Edenton. The public is invit ed to attend this meeting. Mr. S. L. Daughtridge, area con servationist, SCS will conduct the meeting and answer questions concerning the small watershed act. Under the small watershed act. (P.L. 566), landowners must wanti the improvement. That means! that they must organize together! to do a special job. It might be to construct a channel or canal! on the major stream in their com munity. For example, the land owners in the Pollock Swamp watershed might organize for the purpose of doing the necessary | drainage work improvement needed. This improvement work: might be the main stream and any other ditches in the water shed where two or more persons share the benefits. After the watershed is organiz-| ed the group then makes appli cation for Federal funds to assist them in doing the project. Anj agreement is entered into between j the group and the Federal gov-j ernment. This. agreement states j what each party (local people and| government) will provide. An I example is the Folly Ditch Drain-' age District in Gates County. | This group was offered 66V2 per! cent on the total cost by the Fed eral Government leaving 33% per cent for the local peopla The Gates County project was entirely drainage (7.4 miles of new chan nel). Federal funds on this pro ject will be used for clearing the ( right-of-way and for digging the. new channel at the rate of 2/3' the cost, local people providing I'3 of the cost. P.L. 566 is not a j Federal project with local assist ar rhut a local project with Fed eral assistance. Local people | must aet on their own to get as-| sistance under the small water shed program. ■The purpose of this meeting is | to give the facts to the people and let them take their own ac-j tion.
