What the grant funds

Tribal Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDGs) assist tribal governments and intertribal consortia to develop or refine tribal programs which protect, manage, and restore wetlands. All applications submitted under the funding opportunity must be for projects that develop or refine Tribal wetland programs. Tribes and intertribal consortia are eligible to compete under the funding opportunity. States, territories, interstate organizations, local governments, and nonprofit organizations are not eligible to compete. The goals of the wetland program include increasing the quantity and quality of wetlands in the U.S. by conserving and restoring wetland acreage and improving wetland condition. In pursuing these goals, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) seeks to develop the capacity of all levels of government to develop and/or refine effective, comprehensive programs for wetland protection and management. In addition to developing and/or refining wetland protection and management programs, the EPA seeks to build wetland programs that incorporate climate change and environmental justice considerations. Please see the funding opportunity for more information.
