The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is inviting applications for the Fiscal Year 2023 and 2024 Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDGs), aimed at assisting eligible state, tribal, and local agencies, as well as intertribal entities, in developing and refining programs to protect and restore wetlands in accordance with the Clean Water Act. The grants focus on enhancing wetland program development rather than implementation, with a total funding pool of approximately $3.66 million available for awards ranging from $150,000 to $500,000. Proposals must address climate change and environmental justice considerations, and applicants are required to provide a minimum 25% cost share. Interested parties should submit their proposals electronically via Grants.gov by January 12, 2024, and may direct inquiries to Molly Martin at 404-562-9405 or via email at martin.molly@epa.gov.
