PREZ SEZ - continued 



SB 401 will be brought up in the 1974 legislative session in Helena. 



At your Directors' Meeting in Helena, June 3 & 4 , it was decided 

 to have a Director try to meet with each Conservation District Board 

 in the state to explain and inform supervisors of the content of SB 401. 



As I see it, SB 401 updates district law with some new terminology 

 and some specific deadlines. Soil or Sediment is determined by land 

 use. With a good conservation plan, we will conserve soil, only now 

 it is called a "land use plan". Districts have been doing what is in 

 SB 401 for many years and with our input and experience, this will put 

 us way ahead for developing cleaner water and optimum land use in the 

 future for Montana.
