Henricopolis Soil and Water Conservation District is a subdivision of state government responsible under state law for natural resource conservation. We are one of 47 Soil and Water Conservation Districts in Virginia. Established in 1975, Henricopolis serves the citizens of Henrico County.
The District is governed by a 5 member Board of Directors formed of local citizens who serve without pay. Three director positions are elected and two are appointed. The District employs staff to carry out its programs.
Henricopolis works hand in hand with state, federal and county agencies, other conservation organizations and community partners to achieve our conservation objectives.
