What this bill does

Removes the date by which counties must have elected to join the Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP). Provides that a county electing to join the VSP is eligible for a share of funding made available to implement the program, subject to funding availability from the state. Establishes that a county electing to join the VSP is not required to implement the program in a participating watershed until adequate funding for the program in that watershed is provided to the county.
