Clinton County Government - Farmland Preservation
Protects viable agricultural lands by acquiring agricultural conservation easements which prevent the development or improvement of the land for any purpose other than agricultural production. The program encourages landowners to make a long-term commitment to agriculture by offering them financial incentives and security of land use. It protects normal farming operations from incompatible non-farming uses and from complaints of public nuisance against normal farming operations.
Conservation casements in Clinton County protect the agricultural economy and provide compensation to landowners in exchange for their relinquishment of the right to develop their private property. Farmers are paid the difference between the agricultural value and the nonagricultural value of their land. This technique helps farmers who are feeling the pressures of development to sell what can be called, "development rights" and still continue to farm. If that is done, then the owner of the easement, the county and/or state, has t

Lycoming County Government - Nutrient Management Program
The Nutrient Management Act 38 of 2005 requires all livestock operations exceeding two AEUs/acre to develop, implement, and maintain a nutrient management plan. Plans are written by certified nutrient management specialists who have met the criteria specified under Pennsylvania's Nutrient Management Specialist Certification Program, and are submitted to the conservation district for review and approval if they meet the program requirements. Implemented nutrient management plans can improve water quality, reduce fertilizer costs, improve herd health and provide numerous other operational benefits to the farmer. BMPs may be installed to protect streams and groundwater from manure/fertilizer nutrient contamination. In addition, all producers following the provisions of the law will benefit from limited liability protection offered under the act as well as financial assistance programs provided for plan development and implementation.
