About: This event will feature a presentation and question and answer session with John Swanson, water resources supervisor for Polk County, Iowa. Swanson will discuss how the Batch and Build model originated, its successes to date, and best practices that can be replicated in other watersheds.
The Batch and Build method is unique in its approach to installing conservation practices. It focuses on a single or very small number of practices, and streamlines efforts to install as many as possible alongside farmers, landowners, and other stakeholders.
Attendees are encouraged to come with questions.
