Wetland Program Development Grants (EPA Region 10)

From US Environmental Protection Agency

Wetland Program Development Grants assist state, Tribal, territory (Insular Areas), local government agencies, and interstate or intertribal entities in developing or refining state, Tribal, territory, or local programs that protect, manage, and restore wetlands. The goals of the EPA’s wetland program include increasing the quantity and quality of wetlands in the U.S. by conserving and restoring wetland acreage and improving wetland condition. EPA seeks to develop the capacity of all levels of government to develop and refine effective, comprehensive programs for wetland protection and management through the use of the Core Elements of a Wetlands Program, the Wetlands Program Core Elements Framework and for states and Tribes the development of Wetland Program Plans.
