Mission
to provide a means for all interested people in Ripley County to work together for natural resource and development.

The Ripley County SWCD was declared a district on July 1, 1949. This SWCD serves as the citizen's gateway into perserving our natural resources.
The SWCD is a legal subdivision of state government, responsible for providing leadership for all conservation development of soil, water, and related natural resources for all of Ripley County. A district constitutes a governmental subdivision of the state and a public body corporate and politic exercising public powers (IC 14-32-5). A board of five supervisors, who are acquainted with the resource needs and problems of the county, manage the SWCD. Landowners of the county elect three of the supervisors and the State Soil Conservation Board appoints two.
