NEW!
In an effort to provide more services to the private landowners within the Washoe-Pleasant Valleys CWMA, two assistance programs are now available: equipment rental and cost-share assistance (available after 7/6/2010). The equipment rental program provides spray equipment for use to manage noxious weeds on private properties whereas the cost-share assistance program reimburses private landowners for a portion of their chemical and professional labor costs.
