Mississippi Administrative Code
Title 2 - Agriculture and Commerce
Part 903 - MSCWW Cost Share Program
Chapter 3 - General Guidelines
Rule 2-903-3.3 - Eligible Practices and Cost Share Rates

A list of all eligible practices approved for cost share payment appears at the end of Part 903. This list of eligible practices contains practice definitions, purpose, where applicable, specifications, component parts, and maintenance requirements. This list should be used as a guide for determining practice eligibility. Practices that are not included on this list are not eligible for cost sharing. If the landowner or operator applies the practice before it is approved by the district, the practice will not be eligible for cost share funds. Included with the list of eligible practices is a list of cost share rates for each practice. Cost share rates will be set annually by the Mississippi Soil and Water Conservation Commission. Variances in cost share rates cannot be made by districts.

The participant in the cost share program may receive funds to reapply a practice where the failure of the practice was beyond his control such as adverse weather conditions. The soil and water conservation district commissioners will make decisions as to whether to provide these funds. The basis or justification for decision should be documented in the minutes of the board of commissioners meeting.
