31 TAC §517.10
The Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board
(State Board) adopts an amendment to §517.10, which extends the
deadline when soil and water conservation districts (districts) must
have all claims for Conservation Assistance Funds (Matching Funds)
in the state office. The amended rule is adopted without changes to
the proposed text as published in the June 12, 2009, issue of the Texas Register
(34 TexReg 3913) and will

Specifically, this adopted amendment changes the deadline from
August 1st to August 31st to provide districts more consistency with
end-of-year reporting requirements and more time to earn/raise matching
contributions.
No comments were received regarding adoption of the amended rule.
The amended rule is adopted under the Agriculture Code
of Texas, Title 7, Chapter 201, §201.020, which authorizes the
State Board to adopt rules that are necessary for the performance
of its functions under the Agriculture Code.

reviewed by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise of the
agency's legal authority.
