Indiana Farm Bureau’s Drainage School, a seminar focusing on Indiana drainage issues, will take place on Aug. 28 at IFB’s home office in downtown Indianapolis.
The seminar’s purpose is to promote an understanding of the laws and regulations that control drainage laws and dispute resolutions. It is open to farmers, public officials, agency personnel, attorneys and members of the public. Continuing education credits are being sought for attorneys and surveyors.
This year’s seminar features federal and local regulatory issues, duties of drainage boards and surveyors and surface water dispute mediation.
Check-in begins at 8:30 a.m.; the program runs from 9 a.m. until 4:15 p.m. Lunch is provided. Sign up runs until Aug. 9 or until the program fills, whichever comes sooner. Those interested are encouraged to register early due to limited space. Registration is not complete without payment, and there will be no refunds after Aug. 9.
