Easier drought water aid for livestock farms

Livestock operators with drought-related water problems can apply directly to North Dakota’s livestock water aid program. They no longer need to apply for federal farm water aid and receive a denial first. Water projects started after applying, but before state approval, are eligible for funding consideration. Projects on Indian land are also eligible. The Department of Water Resources reviews applications, and aid still depends on program eligibility rules, approval, and available funding.
