Nev. Admin. Code § 548.090 - Determination of whether conservation district is in good standing: Procedure; effect

1. The Commission, at a regular meeting, will request the Program to review the records of each conservation district that are maintained by the Program and advise the Commission concerning which conservation districts appear to be in good standing.

2. If it appears to the Commission that there is evidence that a conservation district is not in good standing:

(a) The Commission will request the Program to notify the conservation district that there is evidence that it is not in good standing; and

(b) The Commission will schedule the determination of the status of the conservation district for the next regularly scheduled public meeting of the Commission.

3. Upon receiving a notice from the Program that there is evidence that it is not in good standing, a conservation district may respond to the Commission in writing within 60 days after receiving the notice or attend the determination hearing at the next regularly scheduled public meeting of the Commission, or both.

4. The Commission will make a final determination as to whether the conservation district is in good standing after it reviews the evidence and hears testimony at its next regularly scheduled public meeting.

5. If the Commission determines that a conservation district is not in good standing, it will:

(a) Place the conservation district on a list which makes it ineligible for grant programs administered by the Commission;

(b) Notify the Natural Resource Conservation Service that the conservation district is not in good standing; and

(c) Ask the conservation district if it wishes to be discontinued or consolidated with another conservation district. The Commission may assist the conservation district by following the procedures for discontinuance as set forth in NRS 548.530.
