This grant, known as Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDGs), is designed to assist various governmental and inter-entity organizations in establishing or improving programs focused on wetlands. Specifically, this funding aims to empower state, territorial, tribal, and local government agencies, as well as interstate and intertribal entities, in their efforts to protect, manage, and restore vital wetland ecosystems. The primary objective is to develop and refine state, territorial, and tribal wetland programs, with a secondary, yet important, focus on enhancing local-level (e.g., county or municipal) initiatives. The ultimate goal is to foster robust wetland management across diverse administrative levels.
