Urban Conservation Program

All states, North Dakota included, are experiencing increases in urban acreage and decreases in rural acreage. When we think of natural resource conservation we often first think of rural areas, but with the increase in urbanization, conservation of our precious resources become just as important in urban areas. In addition to areas that we commonly think of as urbanized we often have areas that are considered “interface” areas. These are areas where urban development meets traditionally rural areas.
