In Virginia, there are 47 Soil and Water Conservation Districts who assist in protecting Virginia’s waterways by providing programs and funding as appropriated by the General Assembly. Districts also implement the Virginia Agricultural BMP Cost Share Program (VACS). The cost-share program supports using various practices in conservation planning to treat animal waste, cropland, pastureland and forested land. The VACS program is administered in partnership by DCR and Virginia’s SWCDs.
