Answer to Question 1

Floods, erosion, and wind damage do not respect state boundaries. The soil and water resources in the United
States are national resources. It is essential that programs aimed at conservation and management of such resources
be consistent across state borders.



Answer to Question 2

Conservation districts have been used to organize local conservation efforts. A program of grants (incentive payments)
was used to encourage the initiation or adoption of conservation practices by offsetting part of the initial
costs. The National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) and other federal programs provide assistance in
planning, financing, and implementing conservation practices

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
