Resource Conservation
LANCASTER - Federal-
State-local cooperation will
be the key in quick im
plementation of the new
Resources Conservation Act,
according to a joint an
nouncement of Walt
Peechatka, Director of the
Pennsylvania Conservation
Commission, and Graham T.
Munkittrick, State Con
servationist, U.S. Soil
Conservation Service.
The Resource Con
servation Act is new federal
legislation requiring
evaluation of soil, water and
related resources and their
ability to meet present and
future demands of the
nation. The economic value
of various soil and water
conservation practices will
be part of the study. This
legislation offers districts,
as subdivisions of state
government, an opportunity
to evaluate county resource
needs and to make their
program more responsive to
these needs.
Based on these appraisals.
