Nitrogen Management Plan --> Next Due Dec. 30, 2020 for 2020 crop
Annually, all members are required to complete a Nitrogen Management Plan (NMP) which records nitrogen applied and the crop yield at the end of the growing season. Please keep these plans in your files onsite, and refer to them when completing your Nitrogen Management Plan Summary Report.
All members must complete a Nitrogen Management Plan Summary Report and submit it to PNSSNS. This INMP is a fillable worksheet and members can save it, and sent or email a copy to PNSSNS at the end of the crop year starting in 2020.

PNSSNS is highly encouraging all members to complete a Sediment and Erosion Control Plan (SECP). Members can "self-certify" their sediment plans by completing the online course during certain times found at Irrigating Lands Regulatory Program (IRLP) Grower Self-Certification Training.
Once the short online course is completed, there is a short test and a certificate will be awarded when you pass the test. Please print out the certificate for your records to demonstrate your "self-certification" for your Sediment and Erosion Control Plan.
The Regional Water Board is actively looking for those not in compliance and sending fine letters to those people that have not joined or are not in compliance with the Waste Discharge Order. PNSSNS provides education and outreach for best management practices with irrigation, pesticide and nutrient applications in order to minimize soil erosion and to continue to protect water quality.
