Central Platte NRD Irrigation Reuse Cost Share Program

When cost share funds are no longer available from Nebraska Soil & Water Conservation Program, applications for cost share for an irrigation reuse pit, inlet pipe and/or return pipe may be made under this program. Cost share is also available for a variable flow tail water recovery system.

The cost share rate is 50% of actual costs or 50% of county average costs whichever is less with a maximum cost share of $3,500.00 per landowner per year on return line.

Use NSWCP-3 Application Forms. Applications must be in the name of the landowner with corresponding social security number or tax ID number.

Applications for cost share are not effective until approved by the NRD Board of Directors. After approved, application will be returned to County Natural Resources Conservation Service
office and landowner will be notified by NRD concerning approval.

This Practice must be planned and installed according to Natural Resources Conservation Service specifications.

Claims for payment will not be accepted more than nine months from the date application is approved. There are no extensions.

Items of cost for which reimbursement is claimed must be supported by documentation of payments made or due. Sales tax is to be included for cost share.

Maintenance on this practice is not eligible for cost share.

The landowner must agree that if any or all of the installed practices shall be removed, altered, or modified so as to lessen their effectiveness without consent of the NRD for a period of ten years after the date of receiving payment, that portion of the claimed amount shall be refunded to the NRD.
