FARMINGTON – Franklin County Soil & Water Conservation District is sponsoring a Pond Building and Maintenance Workshop on Nov. 14 at the Farmington Municipal Building’s downstairs conference room.
This class will allow anyone needing contractor re-certification credits to extend their license for three years.
This is a class/workshop to help with planning, designing and construction of a pond with a heavy emphasis on maintaining an existing pond and its health. A DEP permitting professional will discuss when and where permits are needed. Plenty of time will be allowed for individual questions and answers.

Pre-registration is required.
