directing the state conservation committee to implement the conservation district climate resilience grant program and making an appropriation therefor.

HB 246 establishes a state-funded grant program to help local conservation districts implement climate resilience projects. It directs the state conservation committee to manage the program and allocates specific funding for initiatives like flood control, soil health improvements, and habitat restoration. The bill directly affects conservation districts across the state, providing them with financial resources to address climate-related challenges on local lands. This program creates a concrete mechanism for state support of community-level climate adaptation efforts.
