The SCCD office is currently closed to visitors due to COVID19 transmission risks. We are striving to maintain normal operations as we telework and practice social distancing precautions when in the office or field. All educational and outreach events have been cancelled or postponed at this time. Board meetings will be held virtually. We are happy to assist you via phone (307-672-5820 ext.3) or email (Contact Us page under Home tab).
