Carol Hayes says:Hi Patricia
the position is an obscure position created after the dust bowl. It is unpaid. In rural areas it educates farmers on the best way to conserve soil and keep rivers clean. In urban areas, it is more about working with city and county governments about construction run off. There were two positions open this year, and two people on the ballot.
