1 Colorado Rio Grande Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP)
2 WHERE ARE WE WITH CREP TODAY? PROPOSAL WRITTEN AND APPROVED. PEA CONTRACTED, WRITTEN, AND APPROVED. RE-VEGETATION STUDY IMPLEMENTED AND ONGOING. RIO GRANDE CREP AGREEMENT WRITTEN, APPROVED, AND SIGNED. FINALIZING HANDBOOK AMENDMENT. SCHEDULING TRAINING FOR ALL.
3 FISCAL CLIFF, THE FARM BILL, AND CREP 2008 FARM BILL NOT RE-AUTHORIZED ON OCTOBER 1, NO SPENDING AUTHORITY FOR MANY FARM BILL PROGRAMS, INCLUDING CRP. FB EXTENDED ONE YEAR ON JANUARY 1, 2013: CRP (including CREP) STILL AWAITING OFFICIAL RE- AUTHORIZATION BY SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE AND FUNDING AUTHORITY FROM OMB.
4 How is CREP different than CRP? Offshoot of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) administered by Farm Service Agency. Voluntary Federal/State/Local Conservation Partnership. Requires a 20% non-federal match. Geographically Focused. Irrigated vs. Dryland Rental Rates.
5 Core Features of the Rio Grande CREP Target 40,000 acres only within Subdistrict # year contract with USDA-FSA. Converts irrigated farmland to permanent cover for 15 years= no cropping or irrigation during contract (irrigation permitted for grass establishment only). No irrigation on enrolled acres except to establish permanent cover.
6
7 Objectives of the Rio Grande CREP Reduce agricultural water use by at least 60,000 acre-feet annually. Improve the Aquifer through voluntary incentive-based program. Increase streamflows in streams associated with the Rio Grande Basin within the project area. Restore and enhance wildlife habitat.
8 Objectives of the Rio Grande CREP, continued Reduce soil erosion. Reduce fertilizer and pesticide application over the total project area. Reduce energy consumption from an average of 144,704 kilo-watt per hour (kw-hr) to less than 5,000 k-w per pivot.
9 Re-Vegetation Requirements All range sites will be evaluated by range conservationists and others to ensure stand establishment is maximized based on conditions. Vegetation selection will ensure that cover will persist for the term of the contract after irrigation is removed. All Practices will likely require an annual cover crop before permanent cover is planted. Most Practices will require that irrigation be applied for cover crop and permanent vegetation establishment.
10 ENROLLMENT CRITERIA USDA-FSA DETERMINATIONS LAND ELIGIBILITY CROPPING HISTORY LANDOWNER ELIGIBILITY SUBDISTRICT #1 DETERMINATIONS OFFER LOCATION WATER USE WATER OWNERSHIP
