CELEBRATING 75 YEARS OF SERVICE
Ohio has 88 Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) that strive to provide locally driven solutions to natural resource concerns in both the rural and urban settings. Each county Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) is governed by a board of five locally elected officials, who are familiar with the county’s resource needs and can deliver tailor-made conservation programs. The Warren County Soil Conservation District first officially formed on May 26, 1944, following a referendum in February of 1944, when 97.9% of the Ohio Soil Conservation Committee voted in favor of the proposed soil conservation district in Warren County.
The first board of supervisors were Howard Graham (1944-1950), George Carnahan (1944-
1951), Davis Furnas (1944-1952), A.T. Easton (1944-1956), and Henry Harris (1944-1957).
After two decades of operation, Secretary of State Ted W. Brown confirmed the addition of the term “water” to the district’s name, officially titling the district the Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District on March 23, 1964.
