Farm Service Agency nominations open

The Windham County Farm Service Agency nominations are open for County Committee Elections for Local Administrate Area (LAA) 2. Nominees must reside in one of the LAA 2 towns, which are Woodstock, Thompson or Pomfret. The Farm Service Agency (FSA) adminis- ters and manages farm commodity, conser- vation, and disaster and loan programs as laid out by Congress through a network of federal, state and county offices. County Committee members are a criti- cal component of the operations of FSA. They help deliver FSA farm programs at the local level. Farmers and ranchers who serve on the County Committees help with the decisions necessary to administer the programs in their counties. They also work to make FSA agricultural programs serve the needs of local producers. For more information or to request a nomination form, please contact the office at (860) 774-8397, ext. 110. All nominations are due before the close of business Aug. 3.

He took over historical preservation and land use protection Connecticut’s Open Space Initiative, which the 160-acre family nation for the third win- on Connecticut’s endangered species list would set aside 21 percent of the state’s land for public use. “There’s no good, real definition for what is ‘open space,’” and no master plan within the state, Leenders said. “Anything can be put into ‘open space’ if you put a spin on it,” he said, but a baseball field, for example, is not necessarily going to provide a habitat for birds needing open space, he explained. Half of the birds listed in the state’s endan- gered species list rely on tidal marsh and coastal areas — areas that comprise less than 1 percent of the state’s territory. The second habitat of greatest need is grass and shrub land. With 55 percent of the state covered in forest, Leenders suggested a contained fire could be helpful. In the end, though, there still isn’t enough data to determine how much land of each type should be set aside for conservation purposes, and where, he said. “I don’t know how people sleep at night when they say they’re making smart conser- vation decisions for the state,” Leenders said. “They can’t. There’s not enough information out there.” Citizens can play a big role in compiling data, Leenders said, encouraging those gath- ered to participate in Department of Environmental Protection wildlife surveys and bird counts, donate field records or input data into Web sites like eBird.org. “It’s never been easier to help out,” he said. “It doesn’t cost anything, just time.”
