Ross ChBmbers read a letter from Harry Woodward, Director of the

State Game and Fish Department, indicating their interest in the

CASCD and working with us on the NACD Convention in February,

1963.

A lengthy discussion followed concerning NACD duese One suggestion

made - but no action taken - was to have an a cti ve dis tr:b..Cl..'t. pay the

NACD dues for an inactive district IF the inactive district pays

its nwn state dUes()

Another suggestion waS-that in using the

Affiliate nembershmps on a district level. considerable publicity

should be shown the

[~ffiliate

MeLlbers in local newspaperso Another

suggostion was that the CASCD pay Nll.CD dues from the CASCD treasury

definite action in favor of waiting to see the NACD financial

situation in Novenber.

Ralph Kotich

Robert MCClelland

Clarence Svedman

Considerable discussion was held on the idea of changing the name

of cor:lmi ttees. It was suggeste d that the name of the Public Lands

and Range Cocmi ttee be changed to "Public Lands" and another

committee ItGreat Plains and Land Use Committee

ll

be set up.

It was

further suggested that the name of the Public Lands and Range

Coooittee be changed to "Public Lands and Land Use Comnittee", thus

keeping only one coomittee" Another suggestion was changing the

Public Lands and Range Cocmi ttee to "Land Use Comoi ttee .... Public

and Private" and the "Watershed Coooittee name changed to "Watershed

and Water Resources. It was deciced to leave the names of the

coomittees as is for this year and see what develops.

It was decided to finish the prograo participants, motto, and other

annual [.1eeting preparations

Geofge Weaver reported on the 1962 NASCD Convention.

It was well

run and organized but it was very expensive. Bill Richards has been

replaced by Marion S. Monk of Louisiana as President. Needs are

1.

unimportant things are brought up and take tioe to be dispensed with.

CASCD Director's Meeting Minutes

April 2-3, 1962

)

An amendment that will be considered at the meeting in Denver is

a result of some of the council feeling that they should elect the

officers rather than let the Directors do it. It was suggested that

this wouldn't be wise because the councilmen with 2 or 3 years of

experience don't know the men as well as the Directors who have

worked together for several years. The name of National has been

changed to "National Association of Soil and water Conservation

Districts

tI

abbreviated to NATIONAL

ASSOCI.!~TION

OF CONSERVATION

DISTRICTS ... NACD.

Among other business taken care of was the budget

being revised and new amounts requested

e

Ross Chambers announced that George Weaver was Area 6 Vice-President

and was the new Great Plains Chairman. Ralph Kotich remarked that

gaining impetus is being given to poor planning by urgan developments

in taking agricultural land out of production. The Districts should

have an active part in urban planning. Mr. Kotich also reported that

the Youth CotlOittee is working on a Natiohal Youth Program. George

Weaver said that this

h~s

been go£ng on for several years with the

Goodyear people looking for a program. However, finances, etc., have

prevented definite decisons as yet.

Clarence Svedman comnented that a serious pro@lem brought up at the

NACD convention was that in one state in the South the newly-appointed

state Conservationist was to be put out and a "political appointee"

put in. NACD requested that the present policy of merit basis be

continued in selections of state

Conservationists~

The Teacher Conservation Workshops were discussed by Eugene Herrington

Conservation ConSUltant with the State Department of Education.

Monies from the individual districts has not been coning in. The

Izaac Walton League and the Colorado Wildlife are assisting with

scholoarships. After.considerable discussion, the Directors were

. instructed to boost the workshops in their watersheds.

Activities of the state Department of Education for this year are

a Conservation Guide being prepared for distribution next fall (if

possible). Conservation sketches will appear as a 'series of three

in the CEll. (Colorado Education Association) Journal this year along

with brief summaries in conservation practices. The Game and Fish

Department will pay for approximately one-half of the cost involved.

Fred Fassler, Jr. moved that the CASCD give $130.00 toward the

financing of these special CEA Conservation issues. Seconded by

Rodney Pargin and carried.

TUESDAY, APRIL

3, 1962

The

~eeting

was called to order at

9:00

a.m. by President Chambers.

President Chambers called on F. A. Mark, new :K:tate C("Inservati('lnist,

for comments.

~~.

Mark discussed the budget allowed for

1962

and

remarked that finances needed to be carefully watched. Work

conditions end finances are requiring a "cutbackHo

Mr.

Mark read

a copy of a letter from c('lntractors in the S0uth Platte District

that was sent to Senator Carroll (which was one ("If several letters

fron various contractors) complaining of the wrong useage of surplus

equipment. Considerable discussion was given, particularly from

Lee Acott of South Platte District,

exp~eining

that the complaining

contractor was using a South Platte District ... owned tractor! Mr.

Acott was asked tn have the S0uth Platte District Board of Supervisors

write to Senator Carroll and give tithe other side of the story",

alsn stating that the problem had been presented to the CASCD Board

of Directorso Immediate action in that Mr. Mark and ("Ither SCB

personnel will get together with the South Platte District

s

Board, the State Soil Conservation Board, and the contractors

~n

the

South Platte District area for talks and facts. (As well as other

areas complained about in letters.) The State Law definitely

stipulates that districts may own and operate equipment for use of

district's on cooperatorstlands. Districts

shou~d

be cautious about

bidding on projects

Q!

cooperator's land.

There is a change in the Basic Memorandum of Understanding between

the U. S. Department of ligriculture (SCS) and the District. As near

as can be determined now, no already-organized district will have to

enter into the agreement UNLESS IT AGREES TO

DO

SO. This is needed

because the Basie Meonranctum of Unfcrstanding is out-dated in some

respects. Upon question from George

Weave~,

F.

A.

Mark stated that

the

w.

U. C's CANNOT make his work plan without c("lnsulting with his

district and first having the district's objectives and goals plan

listing priorities of work.

The Basic Memorandum of Understanding is with the U. S. Dept' of

Mr. Mark showed a pamphlet tlFnod and

prepared as a thought-provoking book making specific recommendations

for solving surplus problems, etc. Mr. Mark stressed that there will

un?oubtedly be much disagreenent with the ideas presented but it is

at least some suggestinns to start people thinking.

Mr. Herrington distributed copies. of the CEll. Journals using

conserva-tion pbtures so far. (For which the CASCD gave

The District Workshop Program was discussed.

nls this being of

enough benefit to justify continuing them?" It was felt that those

conducted were successful but it seems to be difficult to get them

lined up. It's up to tho Watershed Director to ask for a District

Workshop program. The gener!'l complaint is that supervisors that

rE'Je.l1y

ilGbd \fl~"')rh:.:Ihops d(}n~

t show up while those that keep

up-to-date and reallydnntt need the workshop attend. Perhaps a better

way of handling it would be through the Soil Conservation Board's

Representative.

ways and means of getting the newsletter out more regularly were

discussed. Directors are urged to send infnrmation in and have

said information in by the first of the

month.-Are-a VI meeting suggested dntes from Colorado were discussed.

Fred Fassler moved-that the CASCD suggest the August date of the

first week in Prescott, Arizona; Seconded by C. A .. S'bodtfflard and

Ross Chambers asked if the Hilton Hotel accommodations were

satisfact0ry. The grnup was in an accord on "yes."

asked to continue as tl1.e

Hepresentative. Ed Hilliard

President along with members from a large selection of sportsmen,

recreationol, municipal, farm groups, landowner organizations,

State agencies and departments, etc. First goal was to find

out what was needed as goals for ItOperation Hespcct". Who is

responsible for sportsman-landowner problem brnught the anser of

Fact ... finding efforts are

needed. Objectives, purpose, scope, and

are in the process

of being formulated. It is the responsibility nf the sportsmen

groups to take the lead since they are the ones that want to

trespass. The program hasn't been broadened enough to reach the

people not in the organizations represented. This needs to be done.

It was agreed not to give financial support at this time.

George Weaver and F.

Mark reoarked on Hesearch

proposed Hesearch laboratory. Need lab beca;use conservation may not

lead tn immediate production but it will affect the future. We need

to gether problems fnr which we need definite study. Solutions nay
