Habitat Restoration Grants Available To Washington Landowners
#1
[font "Arial"]OLYMPIA, WA—Private landowners can receive up to $50,000 in federal grant funding to help restore fish and wildlife habitat on their property for "species at risk" through a program coordinated by the state Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW). Applications are being accepted until Dec. 16 for habitat restoration projects through the state's Landowner Incentive Program (LIP). The DFW is developing a portfolio of potential projects to submit to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for funding in 2006. Qualifying landowners are typically eligible for up to $50,000 in assistance. In addition, another $50,000 will be set aside for smaller grants of up to $5,000 each. Eligible landowners must be able to make a 25 percent contribution, which can include cash and labor. For more information, contact the DFW's LIP coordinator, Ginna Correa, at: (360) 902-2478.
