The Time and Tide Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) Area is a nonprofit organization that provides a valuable service for individuals who are interested in pursuing a grassroots projects within Androscoggin, Kennebec, Knox, Lincoln, Sagadahoc, and Waldo Counties in the state of Maine.
The Time and Tide RC&D organization is comprised of volunteers who form the Time and Tide Council and who have a passion for enhancing their local community and improving its quality of life. The Council strives to wisely conserve, improve, and develop regional natural resources in a manner that will preserve the beauty of Maine for future generations, while simultaneously recognizing economic growth opportunities. The RC&D Program was established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and was managed by the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). In April 2010, USDA removed all staff and office funding for RC&D, which is now a non-profit supported by funding from six counties and various grants. In order for a region to become an RC&D Area, it must receive official Congressional authorization. Through the support of various County Commissioners, Soil & Water Conservation Districts, and concerned local citizens who rallied together to petition Congress, Time and Tide received Congressional authorization on April 12, 1974, thus becoming one of 375 RC&D Areas nationwide. CURRENTLY THE TIME & TIDE COUNCIL IS DETERMINING ITS FUTURE. PLEASE STAY TURNED TO THIS PAGE TO LEARN OF ANY CHANGES. We are not active at this time. Our Sponsors:Androscoggin County Commissioners
