State Technical Committees serve in an advisory capacity to NRCS and other agencies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on the implementation of the natural resources conservation provisions of Farm Bill legislation. Committees are intended to include members from a wide variety of natural resource and agricultural interests.
The Committees meet regularly to provide information, analysis, and recommendations to appropriate USDA officials, who strongly consider their advice. Individuals or groups wanting to participate as members on the Rhode Island State Technical Committee may submit requests to the State Conservationist, Thomas Morgart, explaining their interest and relevant credentials.
