Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program

There is no specific deadline

Sponsored by U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program provides technical and financial assistance to cities and townships, as well as private landowners for habitat restoration on their lands. A variety of habitats can be restored to benefit Federal trust species (for example, migratory birds and fish and threatened and endangered species.) Normally the cost share is 50 percent (the Service and the landowner each pay half of the project costs), but the percentage is flexible. Services or labor can qualify for cost-sharing.
