The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this Recovery Act grant to restore the 50-acre Killdeer Wetlands in Wyoming. This project aims to transform old river channels and oxbows, once fed by the Green River, into a functioning perennial wetland by establishing a dependable water source and raising the surrounding water table. This will encourage riparian vegetation growth, enhancing habitat for waterfowl, shorebirds, and other wildlife. The rehabilitation will also provide an enjoyable recreational asset for the local community. Funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), this initiative seeks to preserve and create jobs, promote economic recovery, and invest in environmental protection and infrastructure, delivering long-term benefits.
