WR cost-share program

Project Timeline (forms listed in bold are available for download below)
1. The landowner submits an Application, an Agreement Form, and a W-9(s) to the Conservation District (CD).
   *NOTE: Work on the project cannot begin until AFTER the landowner signs the contract (Step 5)
2. Applications are ranked by NRCS, and letters of tentative approval are sent out on or after July 1.
3. A contract will be created by the District Manager and approved by the Sedgwick County Conservation District  Board of Supervisors and the State Division of Conservation.
4. The District Manager contacts the landowner by phone and/or mail when the contract is ready to sign.
5. The landowner signs the contract and pays earnest money equal to 10% of the estimated cost of the project (within 2 weeks of receiving notice of the contract).
6. Work on the project can now begin.
    The landowner has 60 days to complete the project. (Extensions may be granted in extenuating circumstances)
7. The landowner submits receipts (including seed tickets if applicable) for completed work.
8. NRCS staff complete the check-out process.
9. The District Manager requests payment from the State and refunds the earnest money to the landowner, NOT the contractor.
10. Payment from the State is mailed to the landowner.

​NOTE: 
No cost-share payments can be processed between May 20 and June 30 of the current year. Projects completed during this time will be submitted for payment in July.
