The Indiana Department of Agriculture and the State Soil and Water Conservation Board has announced the awarding of over $2.3 million in grant funding for 26 projects through the Clean Water Indiana program. The money will allow 48 organizations to improve their local water systems, keep their soil healthy and promote community growth. The Knox County Soil and Water Conservation District will be the recipient of $73,000 for watershed planning and soil health through the Agricultural Conservation Planning Framework.
