AGENCIES ISSUE REMINDER ON SWG PROPOSALS
February 28 , 2006
 
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Executive Director Douglas Austen and Pennsylvania Game Commission Executive Director Carl G. Roe today reminded potential applicants about the recent call-for-projects to help address conservation needs for high-priority conservation projects for endangered, threatened and at-risk species.

The project applications are due by 1 p.m. on April 7. The agencies hope to finalize project selections as soon as possible, thereafter and to develop contracts later this year.

Funded through the State Wildlife Grants (SWG) program, these projects will help address high-priority conservation needs for endangered, threatened and at-risk species across Pennsylvania. For more information on the program, application materials and each agency's priorities, please visit the Grants section of the PFBC website.

The federal dollars for this program are awarded to the two agencies from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Pennsylvania has yet to receive notification of its 2006 award from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, thus funding of any selected projects will be contingent upon this award.

In 2005, the two agencies awarded more than $1.14 million in State Wildlife Grants funding. Since 2001, Pennsylvania has received $11.9 million through this program.
