The Genesee County Soil & Water Conservation District, established in 1944 by the Genesee County Board of Supervisors, is dedicated to conserving soil resources, preventing soil erosion, and improving water quality in Batavia, NY. They work directly with county landowners to implement erosion and sediment control measures, manage stormwater runoff, promote responsible fertilizer and pesticide management, and address agricultural waste.
The district also oversees the Genesee County Water Quality Coordinating Committee, which aims to gather information on water resources, educate the public on water quality responsibilities, provide guidelines for water resource protection, identify funding sources for water quality projects, and prepare annual reports on committee activities and member agency efforts to enhance water quality and availability.
