Proposed Revisions to Section 1 of the Field Office Technical Guides for Louisiana and Wisconsin

Resumen

NRCS is giving notice that it is proposing revisions to Section 1--General Resource References of the Field Office Technical Guides in Louisiana and Wisconsin to include revised State Offsite Methods for Food Security Act Wetland Identification (SOSM). The proposed changes will replace the existing SOSMs in Louisianna and Wisconsin, which have been in use since June 2015 and October 2016. The revisions are needed to clarify procedures and improve consistency in application. SOSM are used in completing wetland determinations for USDA program eligibility purposes.
