Appointments Recommended The Central Platte NRD staff would like to provide the best possible customer service that we can. Since our District ranges from Gothenburg to Columbus, we work with thousands of landowners each year. In order to better serve you, it has become necessary to begin taking appointments. Many of our staff work out in the field and are not available for walk-ins. We’ve also implemented a new voice mail system that will allow you to leave messages when our staff is unavailable. Our secretary, Deb, will continue to answer the phone to help direct you to the staff member you need to speak with. Making an appointment will save you time, effort, and possibly another trip to our office. To make an appointment with any CPNRD staff, please call (308) 385-6282. Thank you for your cooperation!
