Wetlands Program Development Grants
The Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDGs), initiated in FY90, provide
eligible applicants an opportunity to conduct projects that promote the
coordination and acceleration of research, investigations, experiments,
training, demonstrations, surveys, and studies relating to the causes,
effects, extent, prevention, reduction, and elimination of water pollution.
While WPDGs can continue to be used by recipients to build and refine any element
of a comprehensive wetland program, priority will be given to funding projects that
address the three priority areas identified by EPA: Developing a comprehensive
monitoring and assessment program; improving the effectiveness of compensatory mitigation;
and refining the protection of vulnerable wetlands and aquatic resources. States, Tribes,
local governments (S/T/LGs), interstate associations, intertribal consortia, and national
non-profit, non-governmental organizations are eligible to apply.
