The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is offering grants through the Great Lakes Fish and Wildlife Restoration Act. This program invites proposals for restoration, research, and Regional Projects to conserve, restore, and manage fish and wildlife resources and their habitats in the Great Lakes Basin. The grant provides assistance to States, Indian Tribes, and other interested entities for cooperative conservation. Approximately $2 million is projected for Fiscal Year 2014, with individual awards potentially ranging from $2,300 to $2,000,000. Restoration and research projects require a 25% non-federal match. Regional Projects, impacting multiple states or tribes and managed by the Service, may be exempt from cost-sharing. Pre-proposals are submitted for review.

The purpose of the Great Lakes Fish and Wildlife Restoration Act (GLFWRA) is to provide assistance to States, Indian Tribes, and other interested entities to encourage cooperative conservation, restoration and management of the fish and wildlife resources and their habitats in the Great Lakes Basin.
