Overview
The act establishes a state-administered conservation corps program that employs and trains young people on public conservation, restoration, and community improvement projects. It creates a governing commission with appointed members and defined powers to set project objectives, review applications, and approve projects for funding, and it establishes a dedicated fund to pay for the work. It also sets eligibility requirements and benefits for participating corps members and provides for education and training components alongside the project work, with periodic reporting on the program's operation.
