Take the Conservation Needs Assessment Survey!
Michigan Conservation Districts conduct a Conservation Needs Assessment (CNA) survey once every five years to determine local resource needs. This assessment is a survey tool used to prioritize the most important resource needs, as determined by local County residents, to help Conservation Districts promote and implement voluntary conservation.
Ottawa Conservation District last hosted a CNA in 2021 and we’re now turning to the residents and visitors of Ottawa County once again to gauge your natural resource priorities and concerns to help direct the programs and services we offer. This survey is open to anyone who lives, works, or plays in Ottawa County and has a vested interest in the natural resources of the area.
The following survey is anonymous and takes approximately 4-5 minutes to complete. This survey will be open to the public to respond to until September, 30th 2026.
