Continuation Of The Resource

Conservation And Development

Program Raises Questions


The Resource Conservation and Development
Program is a rural development program initi-
ated in the early 1960's to improve the con-
servation and use of natural resources and the
economic well-being of local communities.
GAO found that program objectives have
broadened and are virtually open ended, and
program benefits and costs are difficult to pin
down.

The program's continuation involves policy
judgments the Congress will have to make. If
the Congress decides that the program is to
Qontinue, GAO recommends that it discon-
tinue the use of program funds for financing
the installation of project measures, provide
for deauthorization of inactive or self-suffi-
cient projects, and test alternative delivery
systems.
