This grant program is offered to assist state, tribal, territory, local government agencies, and interstate or intertribal entities in their conservation efforts. The Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDGs) are specifically designed to support the development or refinement of comprehensive programs focused on the critical tasks of protecting, managing, and restoring wetlands. Primarily, this funding aims to significantly enhance state, tribal, and territory-level wetland initiatives, providing resources for program improvement and expansion. A crucial secondary objective is to foster the growth and improvement of local, including county or municipal, wetland programs. This funding is therefore pivotal for strengthening environmental conservation efforts across various governmental levels, ensuring the long-term health and sustainability of vital wetland ecosystems.
