The agreement that will result from this funding opportunity will provide financial support from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to the recipient to support the RWBJV partnership with implementation of projects that will be directly linked to migratory bird habitat conservation as described in the RWBJV Implementation Plan and associated bird plans.
