Agenda 5a. Legislative Update

The proposed last day of this session is April 20th

. There are only three working days left

after Thursday, April 7th

.

LR380CA (Bloomfield) would have reduced the Nebraska Environmental Trust

allocation from the Nebraska Lottery from 44.5% to 26.5% and reduced the Nebraska

State Fair from 10% to 7.5%. The funds would have been shifted to the Educational

Fund controlled by the Legislature. Their allotment would have gone from 44.5% to

65%. This legislative resolution was indefinitely postponed on February 5, 2016, by a

vote of 7-1 in the General Affairs Committee.

LB 711 (Hughes) This bill would reinstate an appropriation and the Riparian Vegetation

Management Task Force in fully appropriated or over-appropriated river basins. It

directed the Director of Agriculture to apply to the Environmental Trust for grants. The

bill was modified in committee to take the language directing the Director of Agriculture

to apply for Trust grants and eliminated language restricting funds to only fully and over-

appropriated river basins. This bill along with LB 1019 and LB 639 were rolled into LB

1038.

LB 1038 (Davis) This bill would allow the owner of a hydropower facility with a water

appropriation to transfer the appropriation jointly to the Nebraska Game and Parks

Commission and any NRD or combination of NRDs and to change the use to maintain

streamflow for the conservation of fish, wildlife, recreation and to assist in the

implementation of integrated management of ground and surface waters.

LB 1038 is currently on Select File and a modified LB 711 has been amended into it

along with LB 1019 (changes to the Niobrara Council) and LB 639 (pertaining to the

Nebraska Department of Roads and vegetation obstructing advertising signs).

'Modification Requested*

RE: NET 12-166 - Grazing Infrastructure to Support Rainwater Basin Working Lands Initiative. Reporting Period: October - December 2015 (15)

Dear Marilyn,

In this last (15th) quarterly reporting period for the Grazing Infrastructure to Support Rainwater Basin Working

Lands Initiative, we are requesting total reimbursement in the amount of$107,364.79. We are submitting invoices in the amount of 101,772.51 for Supplies and Materials. We are also requesting a total amount of $5,592.28 for grant administration. We are reporting matching funds during this reporting period in the amount of $54,312.75.

Please note that we are requesting a modification in the amount of$4,376.00 to move funds from the Communications category to the Supplies and Materials category.

During this reporting period we collaborated with Ducks Unlimited to complete boundary and perimeter fencing project on the Merl Hinze, Regier Acquisition, Dietz and whiskey Flats projects. We also worked with Ducks Unlimited on the Cottonwood Ranch property project in which Sargent Irrigation installed a livestock watering facility. These projects combined enhanced 453 acres of wetland and grassland habitat. During this period the Duane Rieflien project was also completed which involved installing a perimeter fence, berm and tree removal, and installing a livestock watering facility. This project enhanced over 81 acres of habitat.

All of the funds in this grant have been expended and we anticipate submitting the final report within the next few weeks.

The JV and its pattners continue to appreciate the support of the entire NET staff and the funding to support our conservation efforts in reaching our long term restoration goals as set forth by the North American Waterfowl Management Plan (NA WMP). Without the support of NET completion of our goals and objectives would be extremely difficult.

Subject: Project No. 13-131, Project Name - Fire Partnership Program Sponsor: Prescribed Burn Taskforce.

Dear Miss Tabor,

The Prescribed Burn Task Force would like to request a transfer of all remaining funding from the "training" budget category to the "equipment" budget category for this grant. According to my records such a transfer would result in $3095.46 in the "equipment" budget category. The Prescribed Bum Task Force will still conduct all training as planned, and will absorb all costs for the training. PBTF would count the training costs as a matching contribution for this grant project. Your consideration of this matter is greatly appreciated.

H ·Y.··* I am requesting a tnmsfer of $2000 from the "TRAVEL" category to the "PERSONNEL" category'''::''' '

Producers and educators were invited to learn the basics and the latest techniques in continuous no-till planting and soil health education by providing hands-on learning and classroom experiences at a couple of field days and seminars. On October 6th, Mike McDonald hosted a field day at the Prairieland Daily in Palmyra and Douglas, NE. This field day was also supported with a Conservation Innovation grant from NRCS. Dr. Ray Ward was on hand to educate about soil testing. The field day focused on building nutl'ients, reducing weeds and improving soil quality. On December 1st, the Degenhardts hosted a field day in Hebron with a focus on cover crops and grazing.

The Natural Resource Conservation Service employees have been busy presenting the rainfall I?imulator and speaking to a variety of audiences. They answered a lot of cover crop questions during their time at the Wayne County Fair, presented the rainfall simulator to sophomore and junior students in Pierce at the Wonderful World of Water event, prompting interest in another presentation. NRCS employees manned a booth at Husker Harvest days and presented a tabletop version of the rainfall simulator. Dan Gillespie and Marty Marx also presented the rainfall simulator to high school Ag and Biology students in Oakland. They were shown the impOltance of soil health, residue on the soil sUlface and aggregate stability and integrity. NRCS is doing on-going promotions of soil health, cover crops and no-till farming methods through Public Service Announcements on WJAG, KTCH and KTIC radio stations. Dan Gillespie spoke to the students at Northeast Community College, the Ag Horizons Winter Conference in Pierre SD and presented the rainfall simulator in York at a field day sponsored by the Upper Big Blue NRD.

Educators continue to speak with producers throughout the state on an individual basis.

The rainfall simulator will again take up the corner ofthe building at the Chuck Pohlman Ag Complex in NOlfolk for the 29th Annual Northeast Nebraska Farm & Equipment Show on January 13 & 14, 2016.
