JOHN DAY – South Fork John Day River Watershed Council Executive Director Amy Stiner was in the studio last week explaining a grant recently received by the organization to support local landowners through the Regional Conservation Partnership Program:
“One-point-seven million dollars that we can allocate to private lands in our watershed, for practices like juniper removal, spring developments, pasture fencing, re-seeding, weed control—things like that.”
Anyone interested can find more information by contacting the South Fork John Day Watershed Council in John Day at 150 E Main St. Give them a call at (541) 620-5739.
