Soil Stew00 rdship Week is
April 30 "] hrough May 7
Keeping community waters
clean and plentiful is a common
goal all Americans should
embrace, according Io organiz-
ers of the 2000 Soil and Water
Stewardship Week, set for April
30th to May 7th.
The focus of this year's nation-
al observance is on the total
watershed management
approach to natural resource con-
servation.
A WATERSHED IS defined as
an area of land that sheds water
into a common water body, such
as a river or lake. There are thou-
sands of identified watersheds in
America.
Since we all live in a water-
shed, what we do in our own back-
yard has important consequences
to everyone else who lives down-
stream from us.
"Developing a positive stew-
ardship attitude is important as
we work together to nmintain an
adequate supply of clean water,"
said Joel Keith, chairperson of
the Roosevelt SWCD, local spon-
sor of this year's Soil and Water
stewardship Week. "Our local
conservation district would like
to help take the leadership to
bring all interested groups and
individuals together to discuss
how to improve the health of our
own watershed," he added.
The abundance of good, clean
water in our communities is not
guaranteed as some kind of right.
Rather, it's a resource thai must
be earned and re earned as time
passes and conditions change.
While overall per capita con-
sumption of water has decreased
in the last decade, water conser-
vation efforts should never be
abandoned.
MODERN CONSERVATION
efforts are now focused on ways
to keep our natural water supply
system clean, helping to keep
down costs in water treatment
facilities.
For example, farmers are now
installing grassed waterways and
filter strips along the edges of
their fields and streams to pre-
vent soil and nutrients from being
washed into major streams.
Similar good management prao
tices are being installed around
construction sites and large build-
ings and parking lots and subur-
ban and urban areas.
The technology is available I.o
ensure a clean water supply. The
real challenge, according to
Keith, is to develop the collective
community and political will to
get the job done.

can help protect your watershed,
