CP 33
Help Save the Conservation Reserve Program!

Sep-16-2009 - UPDATE - At last night's first CRP listening session in Washington state, the USDA announced that one of their policy options under consideration is to drop CRP enrollment to 24 million acres nationwide. In Quail Forever's view, this is completely unacceptable and we urge all of our members & supporters to take immediate action by contacting the USDA in opposition of this proposal. Additionally, Quail Forever considers the current 32 million acre CRP cap a short term goal, and recommends that the USDA request Congressional authority to expand the program to 45 million acres. • Email comments to CRPcomments@tecinc.com • Submit comments online at the Federal eRulemaking Portal at www.regulations.gov • Mail comments to: CRP SEIS, c/o TEC Inc., 8 San Jose Dr., Suite 3-B, Newport News, VA 23606 • Fax comments to: (757) 594-1469. ...more
