Multiple Fish Habitat Partnerships have recently announced requests for project proposals (RFPs) across the country. Federal funding for the grant opportunities are available under the National Fish Habitat Partnership through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). Guidelines for the use of NFHAP funds by the Service can be found at FWS Policies, which all applicants are encouraged to review. The funds can only be used for on-the-ground habitat conservation projects and related design and monitoring activities; are not able to be used for acquisition in fee or easement.
