The Soil Conservation Service is concerned with man's environment and
its complex interactions--between water and soil; between plants and soil
and water; between people and machines and soil; between wildlife and plants
and soil; between wildlife and people; between rural and urban people;
between landowners and landusers; between farmers and suburbanites; between
units of government and people; and between people and their use of natural
resources.

One of the biggest challenges we are faced with today is the challenge
of zeroing in on objectives and priorities which will result in the most
effective and enduring conservation accomplishments to meet these concerns.
No longer is it adequate to assume that resources will be available to
immediately meet all of the soil and water conservation needs in Colorado.
Hard choices must be made each year in the use of SCS funds. A sound basis
for making program and staffing decisions must be available.

This multi-year plan has been developed to provide that basis. It
outlines in broad terms the thrust of the Soil Conservation Service's
efforts to focus on these concerns during the next five to twenty years.
