NRCS in my area is a totally useless entity.
I've been in the EQIP and CRP program for the
last 3 years. Not only did I get no consideration
for cost share, but the local office here in NE Texas has been irresponsible, unprofessional,
and lackadaisical in their dealings with me.
I proceeded without the cost share, and their
promises of assistance in the dam/pipe design and elevation survey never materialized.
