Non-Point Source Pollution Funds (IDNR) Due to the predominance of agriculture in Iowa and the resulting impact of agricultural NPS pollution on Iowa's water resources, NPS control projects are primarily aimed at preventing and reducing agricultural pollutants. However, the DNR has also funded several projects that address only urban concerns or include an urban component. Most of the DNR funding supports 3 to 5-year water quality projects conducted by cooperating agencies, such as county soil and water conservation districts, other state agencies and other organizations.
