Idaho 2005 State EQIP Sign-Up and Application Information

Protocols and Ranking Sheets

The protocols have been developed to ensure consistency across the state in making eligibility determinations and rating EQIP applications.

Each county has an individual ranking protocol to address environmental concerns associated with that land use.  The ranking is based on the NRCS Quality Criteria and describes what situation needs to exist in order to award points in that category.  The ranking sheets are used to summarize the evaluation and can be found below.

For points to be awarded, an environmental problem must exist on the proposed contracted land.  Points are awarded based on the level of resource problem reduction due to cost shared conservation practices being applied.  The Idaho Quality Criteria defines the specific conditions to be met for each resource and provides guidance for the resource evaluation.  The Quality Criteria may be found at the Idaho eFOTG site.  They are located in Section III under (B) "Idaho Resource Management System Quality Criteria."
