Master Plan

Nebraska statutes say the NRD must have an overall plan for locally managing local natural resources. We call it our Master Plan and it contains the NRD Board's VISION for the future of our natural resources and the NRD. The Board revised its Master Plan earlier this year. We hope you'll use it to better understand actions taken by the NRD, AND we hope you'll also help the District realize the Board's VISION in any way you can.
