UNR Extension seeks rural Nevada participation in drought‑adaptation survey

Loretta Singletary, a University of Nevada Cooperative Extension specialist, told the Elko County Board of Commissioners the National Science Foundation‑funded "Where We Live" project is surveying residents across the Humboldt River Basin to learn how rural communities cope with drought, heat and wildfire. "The focus of the project is to better understand the various ways rural communities are coping with drought, heat and wildfire," she said.
