Board Members & District Staff
The Conservation District operates under both state and county guidelines. PA Act 217 Conservation District Law enables all counties to establish a Conservation District within their respective boundaries. Conservation District Directors are volunteers and are required to be selected from a list provided by nominating organizations approved by the PA State Conservation Commission. From that list the County Commissioners appoint the directors. Director terms are four years.
