Resource Conservation Districts (RCDs) are special districts of the state of California that are locally governed with the purpose of providing assistance and leadership to landowners and residents to conserve soil and water, control runoff, prevent and control soil erosion, manage watersheds, protect water quality, and develop water storage and distribution within their respective districts[1]. RCDs are established and governed under Division 9 of the Public Resources Code, specifically sections 9000-9455. RCDs may be established to provide services for the protection, conservation, restoration, or enhancement of natural resources, including but not limited to controlling runoff, preventing soil erosion, improving water quality, addressing wildfire and other disasters, promoting climate resilience, conserving biodiversity, managing invasive species, and supporting agricultural and forest lands through programs and technical assistance. The primary purpose of RCDs is to work with communities to protect and restore natural resources in a landscape that supports agriculture, urban areas, and wild lands. RCDs non-regulatory, public agencies providing conservation leadership for voluntary stewardship of natural resources on public and private lands[2]. RCDs also serve as a bridge between local communities and public agencies, facilitating cooperation and coordination on conservation matters. In 2024 there are currently 97 RCDs across 10 regions[3].
