FAQs

Is someone able to come out to my property and provide some advice?: Yes. With the county growing as quickly as it is, many people call for information and appointments. Spring is probably the busiest time of the year because of melting snow and heavy rains.
Also, please keep in mind the advice that is given, may not necessarily be what you want to hear. Recommendations are made based on facts and resources, and the topography of the land.

Soil & Water Conservation

1. What information should I be aware of regarding the construction of a new house?: Many times, the soil type and its capabilities are overlooked when planning to use the land. Some soils are not suitable for septic tanks or homes with basements, while others can support them. For a complete description of all soils located in Greene County, please stop in and take a look at the soil survey.
Further, if you live in a sub-division, construction drawings have been submitted and approved by the respective government agency. Therefore, property owners in a sub-division have a grading plan that your home site has been constructed to. This information is available through our office.
