| NVSWCD serves as an organizational judge
for the Fairfax County Regional Science and Engineering Fair.
The NVSWCD judging team looks at projects related to streams,
water quality, soils, erosion, stormwater management, nonpoint
source pollution, and other natural resources issues.
The District awards a $100 scholarship to the top project,
a $50 scholarship to the second project, and $25 for the third
place project.
