The United States Department of Agriculture Sounds Natural Resource Concerns

Home ￫ Articles

A Natural Resource Concern is defined as an expected degradation of the soil, water, air, plant, or animal resource base to an extent the sustainability or intended use of the resource is impaired. Because NRCS quantifies or describes resource concerns as part of a comprehensive conservation planning process that includes client objectives, human and energy resources are considered components of the resource base.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony will run from 11 a.m. to noon. Rick Spinrad, director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA); John Armor, director, NOAA Office of National Marine Sanctuaries; Walter Mosely, New York secretary of state; and Randy Simons, New York State Parks commissioner pro tem, will be in attendance.
Mother Naturee Festival Live Inc. Executive Director Richard Faith is networking with NOAA, USDA, Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary and Oswego County conservation resources in these activities.
About 1,722 square miles of eastern Lake Ontario in New York State in June were designated as a national marine sanctuary. The designation is expected to spark a research and tourism boom in the area, which includes Oswego County. On Sept. 6, a celebration will be held at William S. Cahill Pier in Oswego. Pictured are scuba divers doing the type of research that is expected to increase with the designation.

The April 22, 2024 Earth Day press conference at the Clarion Hotel in Oswego, New York went well. Several speakers were on hand. They spoke of various ways and means to continue the mission to stop global warming. Richard Faith led the event. Among those present who spoke were Jeff Olm, Professor Lee Newman, Catherine Parish, and others. Music videos of the original song "Mother Nature" and Kevin Silvers revision were played. Richard Faith also presented his book Bee Scared and told how he used it to raise funds for Mother Nature Festival Live Inc. To see the Oswego County News Now article CLICK HERE.
