               Water Quality Conservation & Stewardship Awards Programs
        Two stewardship award programs were initiated in 2008 to recognize Upper
    Feather River Watershed landowners for their water quality efforts through
    cooperation and participation in the Prop 50 Studies conducted within the
    watershed during the three year Prop 50 Irrigated Lands Project.  Area ranchers
    and farmers were also recognized for the successful implementation of
    water quality related farm/ranch management practices.

                                 ***  Clean Water Team Cooperators
                                ***  Silver Shovel Awards
Plumas-Sierra UCCE Resource Advisor Holly George thanks landowners and ranch
operators for their cooperation with the Upper Feather River Irrigated Lands Study
Projects and presents the initial Clean Water Team Cooperator Awards for 2008.

Each year at the annual Membership Meeting, UFRWG members are recognized for
their water quality and water conservation success through implementation of
on-the-ground projects and other efforts to advance water quality awareness in our
watershed.

                       Silver Shovel Award
 The Silver Shovel Award recognizes landowners and  community partners  
who work for the advancement of agriculture water quality through local  
educational and awareness programs, or participation in Special Project  
Studies that promote water quality and conservation efforts.
