Phase 4 Designation
The Lower Platte North Natural Resources District Phase 4 Rules and Regulations went into effect on December 10, 2024.
Ice Monitoring – USGS Hivis Cameras
The Lower Platte North NRD has partnered and established an Interlocal Agreement with Dodge County, Papio-Missouri River NRD and the City of Fremont to establish ice/flood monitoring equipment along the Platte River.
ABOUT US
The Lower Platte North Natural Resources District covers 28 communities and approximately 1,031,000 acres of land in east-central Nebraska. The district’s population is roughly 60,000, almost equally divided between urban and rural residents.
The district encompasses land that drains into a stretch of the Platte River from south of Columbus to Ashland. Approximately 70 miles of the river flow directly through or border the district. It is our mission to ensure responsible and sustainable use of the natural resources within our district’s borders.
CONSERVATION TREE PROGRAM
The Tree Planting Program is one of the most visible and popular of the NRD’s programs. Tree orders can now be placed online! For available species, please visit the Forestry page or call the NRD at 402-443-4675.
